Or let's say she has a will surely live with an abortion and will surely die without one. But the baby will surely live if she doesn't have one. That's still a choice and there's no trying to save both patients in this scenario...

Or let's say she has a 80% chance of living with an abortion and her and her baby both have a 35% chance of living without an abortion. She still has a choice here too.

No. You are skewing the issue here. If pregnant lady's doctor tells her she or her baby only has a certain percentage chance of living so early on in her pregnancy, she should run...not walk..to another physician. I don't know of any physician who can accurately make those predictions.

Again, you split hairs.
