Because they have been capable of feeling before, making it more than plausible to say that they have fulfilled the requirements to have implied rights to life due to being capable of consent at any point in their life. A fetus cannot have consent, and does not have the capacity to feel at all to begin with. Waiting for a bit will make them able to feel, yes, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it will happen, nor is future possibility applied to present possibility because that same logic could apply to sperm or earlier forms that are even further away from feeling, hence why I allow it up until the approximate time a fetus can feel pain, which is why I have few issues with an abortion ban at 15-24 weeks, because that’s a sizeable amount of time to allow the parent to make an informed decision before the fetus can feel pain, which would therein allow implied rights.
