Those are all fine reasons, but I will make an analogy.

I am not anti-contact, and I would speak out to say why I thought so, and challenge the opposition. At the same time, I might advise others and self to be anti-contact by practice, because within a society that is anti-contact the younger party will have to deal with their biased views growing up, and it is usually impractical to be able to fight all of the false views that may be put upon someone. Effectively then, it can become that being anti-contact has less ill effects.

It recognizes that society is to blame, not the contact itself, but also that until society changes there is potential for harm. (Caused by society, but alleviated if acting anti-contact, since direct control over society is not possible.)

Same argument here. I agree with the pros you have demonstrated, but since we do live in a culture that infantilizes youth, they have become ill prepared to be financially stable in their teen years. To me having a baby in your teen years as a way of solving this problem is like acting as if it were solved, but really our youth are still being treated like less and less capable youth, so it doesn't actually solve the problem, but makes more symptoms because they have come to be ill-prepared for these responsibilities at younger and younger ages.
