Following conception, the pill prevents a fertilized egg from implanting.

Are you debating that fact? Or are you saying that the fertilized egg would not count as a person yet? Your blanket dismissal as misinformation ignores the text of the amendment and the reality of what the birth control pill does.

Perhaps you do not realize that the most commonly used birth control pills are a combination of female hormones (estrogen and progesterone) that prevent ovulation, basically making the body “think” it is pregnant all the time, thus preventing the release of an egg to be fertilized.

I know very well the text of the ballot initiative and amendment—I voted on it yesterday here in Mississippi.
