Cleaning up a bit

Deleted the bit about forum shopping, because that's an unintended consequence, not a perverse incentive. (Unless a forum became friendly in order to handle fewer cases, but that doesn't make any sense at all.) I also deleted some unnecessary conjecture from the abortion bit that was mostly unrelated to the main point.— Preceding unsigned comment added by GrandOpener (talk • contribs) 10:32, 18 February 2011‎
