“Developed Nations” is a small minority of the world.
Maternal mortality, yes, you are right, but that’s just one metric.
The US ranks below many nations not considered developed as well. I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make.
I cited two metrics, not one: maternal mortality and life expectancy. The US is also in the bottom 60 for income inequality.
