The same way it makes more sense to celebrate when a person was born[1] than to celebrate when the atoms of their body was formed.

My daughter arrived 10 weeks premature and with her being only 16 months old now since birth, whenever we’re asked her age it’s normally for people to compare her progress developmentally and we have to do a quick calculation in our heads.
It made me realise that date of birth is not especially significant compared to date of conception.
Fortune as time goes on it will matter less.
I'm not at all into the proper side of science, but one thing that strikes me is that since conception doesn't have to lead to a child being born [1], celebrating the final more obvious "success case" makes more sense to me.
