I didn’t think it’s wrong universally, for example, Ukraines current offensive into Russia.
But I’d be okay with Ukraine deploying conscripts to that front.
Would you rather see Ukraine fall to Russia than implement a draft?
Why ought countries risk their existence to avoid a draft? The government already dictates other matters of life and death. Forgoing a draft would force bigger permanent militaries and not allow for some defense in depth strategies.
How about WWII? Should the allies have been significantly weaker and prolonged how long the Nazis were in power to avoid a draft?
I’d hold a lesser of two evils justify it. The government already dictates what you need to do. Is it the commanded act of killing people that you think takes it too far?
They force jury duty, taxes, traffic laws, and sometimes public service or jail time. Those are all forced labor.
