As to the 2nd Farmer case, he didn't really comment on "abortion = bad" so much as he showed respect for stare decisis. He said that the law was unconstitutional just as the previous one that SCOTUS had struck down for the same reasons. As far as the majority opinion concerning Roe, I've argued that all along -- the whole viability standard, and at that point, you're talking only about 1% or so of abortions that occur in this country.
Given that I was discussing a previous PP case, it was hardly unambigious, particularly since it was mentioned earlier in the PP press release.

He wrote a concurring opinion becase he refused to endorse the policy of the Supreme Court, only to uphold it.
