I am still sorting out my thoughts on the subject as there are benign aspects and also troublesome aspects to the concept.
Yep. It’s complicated, isn’t it?
Technology to save desperately wanted premature babies seems like a worthwhile cause...
But the earlier babies can theoretically survive from, the more pressure there is to move back abortion deadlines, and restricting abortion is bad for women.
And completely artificially-womb-raised babies is better than exploiting women through surrogacy, but who knows how not being gestated by an actual mother could affect the life-long health and mental well-being of a baby created in this way?
And in a dystopian future, men could theoretically demand custody of children prior to birth.
And regardless of the potential positives for premature infant, this will likely only be available to a fraction of parents-to-be anyway.
Urgh. What a mess.
