OK, that would be about control, though political control.
There is probably one Texan legislator, at least, who also believes the 6000 year thing and could pass a lie detector for “do you really believe God breathes souls into life at conception?“
Now… Could they pass a lie detector for “do you promise you would never pay for your mistress to fly out of state for an abortion?“
Can’t say no for sure… 🤥
(Cautioning overestimating malice in a way that underestimates superstition.)

They probably will, but when the time come they’ll manage to come up with the perfect excuse why their case is special and deserves an exemption.
