Why? We could just offer effective family planning to everybody and then society can pick up the tab and provide care independent of the parents.
In what way does that contradict what I wrote?
I don't think that inherently a fetus has that level of prioritization. When the instances of unwanted or accidental pregnancies hits a point of approximately zero, we can talk about prioritizing the fetus over that of those that are already born, especially the mother that would be the most impacted by this.
The fact that we don't have those things is a pretty clear indication that the fetus isn't considered to be that important by society Some places do a better job of it than others, but I'm not aware of anywhere that being an orphan or put up for adoption at an early age is as good as having actual parents.
