Did the culture of death give them the option of caring for the bambino at home?
I am guessing no.
If they did have that option and the baby thrived even if severly disabled it would not fufill the goal of the death culture.

It doesn’t seem like they were given any choice.
Probably their announcement yesterday came after they realized that they were never going to win.
