Because they’re only newly conscious? The same can be said of your sef tomorrow morning, but you’ll have memories and experiences that will quickly orient you to your identity, your place in the wotld and your desires, as will future generations.
But I’m already alive, so if I’m no longer alive tomorrow morning it’ll mean that I died during the night—which involves a certain amount of suffering.
If I die without knowing it, it would cause me no suffering at all, but my loved ones would still suffer, and my life, which is already established as being happy, would have been cut short for no good reason.
None of these things are true for a non-conceived human because they can’t feel pain and have no established ability (or desire) to experience a happy life.
