Thanks, that does make sense now

I agree, it is nothing to do with making so-called “trans women” (i.e. men) feel included. The language is intended to acknowledge that women who think they’re not women also get pregnant. It attempts to avoid hurting their feelings by avoiding calling them “women”. And in doing so it disrespects women everywhere, queering language so that it becomes ever more difficult to discuss issues in the terms male/female categories that genderists have decided are undesirable.
