How so?

Placing this threshold someplace too far up a human's timeline means that you might be killing a bona fide person. For example, the fifth birthday is obviously way too high up the timeline. I am saying when you place a threshold for something so significant as being a full fledged human being, it is better to make a mistake towards the conservative side than run the risk of misclassifying a person as a non-person.

(oh, I can here radar now... 'but its NOT a person')
