gollark: * turn into a person
gollark: They could turn into one, though, just with lower probability.
gollark: Why? Lower probability of eventually becoming a full person? The individual parts still have a nonzero one.
gollark: What's the exact threshold for probability you would use?
gollark: Why, though? Why require it for a fetus, which will with some fairly high probability be born and then with some also fairly high (with modern medicine) probability go on to grow up and whatever, but not something with a lower chance of becoming a person?
