Yeah - this is also the consensus a lot of law has landed on in Europe, I think it's also reasonable (especially as a baseline compromise to prevent total bans).

The vast majority (~80%) are within the first 12 weeks anyway, the later ones usually have extenuating circumstances and third trimester was already banned (without cause) in most cases anyway.

I'm pretty sure polling also shows most Americans have some nuanced view on this that sits somewhere in this range.

People, in general, usually have pretty nuanced views. Altough, I personally have seen quite a few cases where people became more hardlined on certain issues after seeing the "oppositions" behaviour on it. (Anti gun people being more hardlined after seeing that pro gun ones go to the range with their kids, for example.)
