The article goes on to say that most courts still require a non-biological-father to support the kids he once believed were his own. To protect the kids.
The motivation for this is that the legals have decided that supporting the children is more important than fairness. Its that simple; some legals will even admit it.
There are similarly motivated restrictions on how much you can deny your spouse when you die.
