I think it's just because it's so visual. So much closer to infanticide. Thinking about 1-week embryos as living, complete humans is not that hard, but it's more of an intellectual exercise than believing that later-term embryos are. The automatic "protect the child" instinct kicks in.
At least that's true for me, and I would assume also for a lot of pro-life women.
