Births are what matter, as a pregnant teen can get an abortion, resulting in skewed statistics if you're trying to figure out how many teens are having babies, which (imo) is the thing society should actually care about, as unready parents tend to be a drain on collective/social resources.

That's true, but if your argument is the lower number of births is due to widespread availability of contraception, you have to address pregnancy and not just births.
