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.
