Abolition would be extreme. The first case is a problem with blues not knowing what a tight budget is, and could have been solved by the judge learning about non-blue finance or consulting with the school administration. The second could be solved by raising the out-of-caste income cap. The third sounds harder, but surrogacy pays well in addition to being expensive, and doesn’t interfere with flute-playing. The green could carry another couple’s baby and earn enough to hire a purple surrogate.

Because blues learn things about non-blue needs and constraints all the time, sounds legit.  Because trying to raise the out-of-caste income cap doesn’t get shot down every time.  Because the reason surrogacy is expensive has nothing to do with most people not having the emotional fortitude to go through an entire pregnancy they don’t get to keep, it’s unpopular for some *other* reason, uh, I forget what.
