The reason Row v Wade was overturned is that the judges don't want to have to decide if abortion is legal or not. They want legislators to be responsible for that.
You, the judges, and the parent comment are all in agreement here.
It's political. It's always been political. It always will be. The judges that want abortions illegal will find legal arguments to make that happen and vice versa.

No. The reason Roe v Wade was overturned is because conservative middle-aged/old white-guys with money are not happy about people, and by people I mean women, having reproductive choice.
It's one of the areas that fundamental islam and conservative "Christians" have significant overlap, and that's not a good thing.
