We are looking to justify the conclusion. To show that a conclusion is true from a premise, we need to show that the premise proves the conclusion. This is what A does. To show that the conclusion proves the premise doesn't really do anything. If the conclusion proves the premise is true, this doesn't help us since we already know the premise is true. We need to show that the conclusion is true. That is, we need to conclusion to be the necessary condition, not the sufficient.
