> "you can't be half-pregnant"

Yes you can. It's called a miscarriage. That is, you're pregnant but the foetus is dead. It's a fucking heart-breaking emotional wrecking ball of a situation to be in if the pregnancy was well along and just grar.

I know what a miscarriage is, and that you can't have percentage% of one. Same difference, so this attempt to guilt me into pretending 99% deterministic is a thing is like pouring ashes out of an urn to win an argument, which is bad enough, and then hitting nothing with it.
