Excellent dissection of this very faulty episode. It's clearly anti-population, pro-sterility propaganda.
One point I'd add: The "happy ending" has the woman bringing a deadly, contagious disease back to her planet, where there is no apparent cure (or at least, they don't want one). The natural consequence will be a plague that wipes out most, if not all, of the planet's people. That's a cheery ending?

Thank you! Quite agree.
