My, I'd like to think logical, response is that just because the former can impact the need for the latter does negate the independent existence of the latter.

I do not see them as separate whatsoever.

IF the item growing inside her is an unviable tissue mass, and IF she can remove it at her discretion and no one elses, or allow it to grow and be born at her discretion and no one elses, then it is her responsibility alone. She made the decision to bring it into the world.

No birth, no offspring. The birth is the complete decision of the woman. The man has no legal standing in making a determination as to if the tissue will be permitted to grow and be born.
