“Criminalization” of the act would be done via Congressional action (federal law) or state laws.If RvW were overturned, it wouldn't criminalize all abortions, it would just be allowed for individual states to do so.
As for the effect of the possible overturn of Roe by SCOTUS on states, SCOTUS’ ruling supersedes any state laws that may continue to allow abortions in the same manner that all SCOTUS rulings have.
If there’s a hole in my thinking, feel free to explain what it is.
