This is the crux of your reply:
But for many people, an unborn fully developed, moments from birth, is no different from a newborn.
The freedom of pro-choice is that if you believe an unborn baby equals a newborn than you have all the freedom in the world to act on that. Give birth to many kids, help many expectant mothers, adopt unwanted children, fight for maternal rights and parental leave. Make the world a better place for the unborn. No one is stopping you.
The challenge of pro-life is that if you do not believe an unborn baby equals a newborn you are trapped. Pro-choice traps no one, as everyone capable of making a choice is free to make it. It is an unfortunate reality that babies in utero aren't capable of making a choice, but saying "they should get the right to choose too" is ignoring reality and appealing to fantasy. I wish we could ask the unborn what we wanted, but we can't. It is folly to assume all children would wish to be born as all the living do not wish to be alive. Statistically, if we could ask the unborn what they wanted, some would choose not to be live. I will therefore not trap people for the sake of the theoretical and impossible to determine wishes of another.
By being pro-choice, I am saying "we don't share beliefs, but I support your right to act on them how you see fit."
By being pro-life, they are saying "I don't care if you agree with me, you will be legally forced to follow my beliefs."
