Roe's weakness is the fact that it tried to determine how to accomplish the balancing act and did so in a way that now shows its age.
I predict at some point the court will make the legislature undertake the balancing act and will then have 5 cases per year because legislatures will either refuse to or be incapable of balancing in a rational manner.
