You are looking at it from the eyes of the Health System that you know.
I lived in countries were elective C-sections are a thing and the father is just a guy we need to notify at the end of the ordeal.
But I also lived in countries where birth (inside the hospital) in a birthing pool with the music and light and drugs of your choice is a thing, with the father right next to the mother.
