You're right, they're not the same thing. I would imagine killing an infant yourself after it's born is a lot harder (and actually murder) than having a non-medically necessary later term abortion. And yet hundreds of women do it every year. If you think "literally nobody" has a non-medically necessary late term abortion, then you need to provide some evidence to back up such an absurd statement. It's legal in all those states for a reason.

If you say that it happens, you provide proof that it does: that's the way round that proof works. Do not shift the burden of proof. "prove the absence" is a well-known absurdity in general.
Your imaginings about infanticide are uninteresting, and I think wrong, but it also seems that you would rather pick nits about this insane comparison, so no.

There is actually a metric shit ton of research on infanticide, I'm not sure what would lead you to pretend it's not real.

Uninteresting distraction, since as pointed out above, it is unrelated to the topic at hand.

Word games. Again: pointless distraction, dishonest, uninteresting.
Burden of proof remains on you.
