    This could be just because of a mix of not so bad to very terrible reasons but I don’t have a clear picture on this.

    Note that birthrates can decline for legitimately good reasons, too. Birthrates have declined in many places as material conditions have improved, and declining birthrates are also tied to increased economic financial and political autonomy for women.

        Which certainly could be bad, but it would also be consistent with something like (a) free birth control and (b) ensuring that women can't be forced into marriage. Neither of those are particularly radical programs, but they'd bring birthrates down about as soon as they were implemented.
