This seems a strange debate to me.  If the unborn child (at any stage of development) is living in a biological sense, he or she potentially will leave the womb as a living boy or girl.  If the unborn child is dead in a biological sense, it will either be expelled from womb as dead, or cause an infection in the mother.  So the status of "dead" or "alive" with respect to the unborn child is always significant and neutral. 

 The intent of an abortion is make a living unborn child a dead unborn child while the methods may differ.  Of course, Preganancies also "end" or "terminate" in giving birth to living children (i.e. my mother's pregnancy naturally "terminated" with my birth), but because of the wide usage of the euphemism of "terminate" meaning to intentionally kill the unborn child, people need to be careful when they speak of a termination of a pregnancy in any sense other than abortion. 

 So, is the whole point of this discussion to calibrate how far certain euphemisms for killing the unborn have penetrated the medical vocabulary and popular culture?
