These aren't adults, they're embryos. What differentiates them? Mere anthrocentrism is not a logical argument.


We're back to my original comment: the human embryo is just a young human. The mouse embryo isn't.

Saying we're going to kill it before it grows up ("since that is not allowed to happen in these experiments") doesn't make the human embryo less of a young human.
