They don't want terms that are loaded against oppression, which is why we don't have the more accurate labels "pro- choice" and "anti-choice."

It's entirely possible to be pro-choice (everyone should be free to choose to have an abortion) and pro-life (personally choosing to not have an abortion), but the term is purposefully misapplied.
