It's not about the development of the fetus, it's about the woman's autonomy. So long as it's still inside her, her right to choose takes priority over its right to live, full stop.
Why do you assert this? Based on what moral framework? Is it morally okay to abandon a baby to the elements after birth, in favour of the autonomy of those who would raise it?
I'm not going to engage with you on the topic of a women's right to choose, or the meaning of bodily autonomy. On the off chance you're not a troll, good luck with your research on this very well documented political debate.
