Thus, humans are dogs.

There is, in fact, a reason why a fetus cannot be a baby, it's called that's how words fucking work.

The fetus, not child, children have been born, is entirely dependent upon the mother's body, and she has the right, as a part of the right to her own body, to no longer have the fetus, not baby, attached to her body.

It's the same type of logic. Just because two things share something in common doesn't make them equal. It's a combination of a vast array of things that do. 46 chromosomes is not a vast array.
