ubiquitin,

“Extremely unlikely???? It isn’t my field but I know of several such cases. I have spoken to those who are directly in the field and they say “extremely likely” is an understatement. “routine” is a better descriptor”

I’m not sure we’re referring to the same thing. I’m not referring to pregnancy complications where the medical establishment would advise abortion, R”L. I’m referring to an intersectional case where Torah authorities would require abortion, but the medical establishment (psychological and medical) deems it unnecessary. That specific scenario, which is the linchpin of your pro-choice is consistent with Torah argument, seems incredibly unlikely to me.
