Would overturning Roe actually depoliticize the abortion debate?

I've been wondering about this lately. If states like Arkansas were allowed to ban abortion entirely, while other states like California kept their abortion laws, would that satisfy anti-abortion activists? Honestly, I don't think it would. These people literally think babies are being murdered across the country, and I don't think they'd become any less strident in their beliefs just because babies in red states are being "saved" while babies in blue states continue "dying." I'm afraid this is an all-or-nothing game, and compromises like this might fundamentally misunderstand where both sides of this debate are coming from.

I believe many pro-lifers would be satisfied with the prospect that some other states make abortion legal so long as their own state bans it. This would include pro-lifers who recognize that the Constitution is silent on the topic of abortion, so no branch of the federal government is delegated the power to ban abortion across the entire nation.

This was my initial thinking on this subject as well, but I'm not sure I believe it anymore. If someone genuinely believes abortion is child murder, why should they be satisfied with a situation where babies are being killed in California but not Tennessee?
