Someone with no personal experience of suffering should also be moved by that consideration.
That sounds like a fantastic reason for someone with that experience to post it, as occurred here, as a way to explain what it is like to others.
In fact, only the existence of suffering for some concrete individual justifies the abstract conclusion of altruism. Without that concrete level, the abstraction is hypothetical, and should not provide the same level of reason to be altruistic.
