Was the anger the man displayed towards the women uunjustified when you take into consideration the fact the smoking while pregnant contributes to birth defects, low birth rate, down syndrome, etc...
Actually, smoking only is proven to affect birth weight (which, if you're a pregnant woman with a low pain threshold... ;^) The effect on birth weight is also negligible post-partum.

I was thrilled with my 5lb14oz "low birth weight" baby - water broke at 4:55 I was holding her at 5:41- no pain meds no nothing.
