As an onlooking third party, I don't understand. You further say:

> I don't see much difference between killing chicks after them being born, or stopping them from being born in the first place.

But as far as I can understand it, that is the same thing.

> I did not prescribe an alternative, don't pretend that I have.

It was not supposed that you were prescribing an alternative. The words "you think the solution" were not introducing a supposed solution of yours; they were introducing a solution (the process discussed in TFA) about which you (appeared to) have a thought.
