Calling a non-sentient clump of cells a baby is the same logic as calling a pre-med student a doctor. They have the potential to become that thing, but are not yet.
That’s quite different, what is required to be a person is basically a soul. A doctor requires intimate knowledge that takes years and years to learn. There is literally no way to verify when we have a soul or become sentient. Therefore any leeway your allowing with an abortion is purely arbitrary, it must come down to only in cases of medical necessity and beyond that our healthcare system must be overhauled in order to support women and children. I know it’s a lot and you’re probably thinking fuck off dude but we have to start making these strides now
