16. What if it is as easy a decision as I think it is for many, if not most, women?

Not "no mani-pedi appointments available, so I'll get an abortion" flippant like pro-liars pretend, but like real life: women who think things through in advance, and know what their options are and what plans they have for their future (and for their families and child/ren). Who have decided long ago, that if her birth control fails, abortion is right for her. No hard decision. No handwringing. Just a medical decision. What's wrong with that?
