It saves them the trouble of naming the woman who gave birth as the mother and then adding the second woman as the other parent by adoption (which NJ permitted before). If you take a word and add enough variations and permutations and perambulations and on and on, the original word loses all meaning.

This news struck me as an easy beurocratic change to reflect the legal biological/adoption situation in that family. At least, that was my assumption.
