Why would Gorsuch vote against Roe, when he's always been for it?

He wasn't "for it", This is what he said:

Gorsuch, during his hearing in 2017, called the abortion-rights ruling a “precedent of the United States Supreme Court. It has been reaffirmed.”

He could have said the same thing about Plessy vs. Ferguson in 1945. That does not make him support Jim Crow laws, nor would it impede him from over-turning Plessy on Constitutional grounds.
