If the overall goal is to increase the human population, it actually makes total sense
If the goal is to prevent murders, then no, it doesn't make sense
Even if it's just to increase the population, it doesn't really make sense. Would a similar fertility clinic not exist without this person opening it? Would those babies not have been born otherwise?
