Abdominal thrusts and choking

Hi there, as a member of the first aid project, i would value your opinion. I strongly believe that abdominal thrusts does not need it's own article, and should be redirected to choking, where we can have one coherent article on the subject. I think this should be the case because:

Abdominal thrusts are only used for choking, and therefore logically sit in that article
With how-tos removed from abdominal thrusts, the article is very short, verging on being a stub
It avoids people looking either term up having to flick between pages to find the information they require
It follows the logic of some other similar changes on the project such as the creation of Emergency bleeding control from the stubs of tourniquet, pressure point etc.
It provides a single place of reference on Wikipedia for the information, rather than two 'competing' pages who repeat a lot of the same information

I would very much appreciate any input you might have to support or oppose my view (hey, i'm not right all the time) on the talk page Talk:Abdominal thrusts
