Except she apparently actually suggested using braindead people in general, meaning that braindead people without wombs would be fitted with them.

I know there's a bimbofication joke in here somewhere but my brain can't get over the existential horror to find it

Honestly I have to wonder if she was just suggesting something so clearly dystopian and existential-horror-y and just generally icky and fucked up as a way to get a reaction. She argues in the article that using braindead people as surrogates is "morally no different" from organ donation, which makes me feel like the idea is intended more as a sort of commentary on the morality of organ donation, as opposed to an actual sincere suggestion.

That does raise a somewhat interesting ethical conversation, I suppose.

IF donating all your organs after death is a good thing and IF donating your body to "science" might also be a good thing (we're gonna ignore people's bodies being sent to firing and explosives ranges instead of medical research and teaching)... would having your entire body being used for a single purpose (after being declared brain dead) be socially acceptable? A purpose such as, an biological artificial(?) womb.

Would society be very weird about the children born (produced?) this way like it was in the USA for at least several decades?
