Going to have to jump in here, defrost. You did indeed claim it is a "legal minefield", only later to say "Well, actually, I meant this single, one paper claims that." Hyperbole is what this paper likely is engaging in. It's certainly presenting a "worst case scenario" examination. And even if not, it's only presenting possible issues. Issues which may or may not come up, and all of these states have differing legislation.

I did indeed accurately paraphrase the part of the brief that discussed the current legal status of medical abortion issues in some US states. > only later to say "Well, actually, I meant this single, one paper claims that." I certainly referred to that paper. I did not make the claim that you're asserting via paraphrasing my comment. > Hyperbole is what this paper likely is engaging in. In your opinion. An opinion you seem uncertain about. By my reading it presents as measured and as quoting the actual concerns of actual people. > Issues which may or may not come up, All the issues raised do indeed come up in real life - medical cases can get messy and mother | child health issues are not always as neat, well packaged, and clear cut as some seem to think. There are always edge cases in any given state in any given month. Don't take my word for it, go and ask several practicsing OBGYN's.
