letting only the rich use them.
Main selling point would be how much easier it'd be to disown their loser offspring.
Just throw it into the recycler and start again /s

The idea is rooted in eugenics. Scientists fertilized a egg with a sperm, bypassing "survival of the fittest" in the womb, which somehow makes the genes "weaker", which somehow makes the resulting child less valid
Huh. You're saying the ones mocking the idea of test tube babies were the eugenicists?
I've understood it as test tube babies being mocked because of the idea that someone is brewing up their own genetically modified baby, like a eugenicist's wet dream. Think GATTACA.

Or, you know, not put mothers through the painful, dangerous, and potentially lethal ordeal known as pregnancy.

Ah yes, break the bonds that bind family and ultimately society together to "protect women". It is only lethal in places with shitty medical car....okay I see where you are going with this.

Hopefully some bright mind will be able to merge this with the crushing machine and we can enter a new golden age of technology.

I don't claim to be an expert on the endocrine system. But I know enough to know it's the most complicated system in the body. Possibly more complicated than the brain (my area of expertise).
And only recently did scientists figure out how to high jack the endocrine system for weight loss and not without plenty of side effects.
So in order for a baby to come to term, it must be exposed to different hormones , at different levels, at different times that come from the mother.
We can't produce all of those hormones.
We can't currently determine all of hormone needs of a fetus.We can grow an embreyo in a container for quite a few weeks. Maybe even a few months.
Sure, you can attach it to a roomba with temperature control.
But that's not the same as being able to grow a baby to term.
