Plus it seems weird to pin a point of ethics to a moving target

Quite simple. Since it seems little doubt that medical advances will one day push that date right back to fertilisation, pin it to a stationary target such as fertilisation. Problem solved.

Yep, that would certainly be a more consistent way of doing it than the current Roe vs Wade compromise. However it still loses out on the goal of promoting overall human happiness when compared to the alternative, also consistent, solutions of pinning either to the target of natural viability, or that of natural birth.
