I don't understand. A is supported by all of the facts where as D is just an analogy to help facilitate the understanding of the conclusion

Yeah, and choice D is a "conclusion" that existentialists would make, not the author of this passage. A is the only logical answer choice unless there is no clear conclusion

Answer from the author:
We consider (A) to be a statement, not a conclusion. Same with (B). Same with (C).

(D) is a conclusion (in the form of an analogy) that follows from the first sentence. The word 'so' is flagging this.
