The most sanguine point about the sacrifice of first-borns and choicest lambs analogy is that such sacrifices do not at all help solve the problem, such as the sun's rise or the avoidance of natural disasters. The sacrifices were instituted to enhance regime control over the peons.
If and when people submit to such sacrifices, it's not long before the monopolistic "security mysticism" "service providers" would degenerate the quality/cost ratio to such a level that they'd be actively looking for scares to ensure the sacrifices keep flowing. The human sacrifice to ensure sun rise was the ultimate expression of the social dynamic between such monopolistic greed and silly peons submitting to it.
