That's correct. RBG said she would not likely have voted with Roe which was focused on the doctor and not the woman. That she would have liked to see progress carry on in the states then eventually move federally (like we'll see with weed at some point). She said it gave opposition a target. Instead of some percentage of 50, it was a nationally agreed upon "problem" by opponents.
I disagree with a lot of her positions, but this one seems well reasoned.
The 7 justices that decided Roe really did think they were ending conflict by siding as they did, that I believe did not, at all.

Major hubris there.
“Ok. We’re telling you what’s up; now play nice.”
Roe was just a bad decision for so many reasons (not discussing the actual rule it created).
We can only guess and hypothesize. But one has to wonder if the pro-choice movement would’ve been better off without row, and with the passage of time.
