No second chance when sacrificing corpse of creature of same alignment as altar

Obviously encountered with N altars most easily. When livesaccing, if you attempt to sacrifice a creature of the same alignment as the altar, you get told that the deity does not welcome sacrificing her own creatures or some such, and you get a second chance w/ no[?] harm to piety / no conversion of altar / etc.

When offering corpses of same alignment, there is no second chance and altar is converted to C immediately, etc. There should either be a second chance when offering corpses of same alignment (preferred) or no second chance ever (would be p. bad solution) to be consistent.

Obviously, if you use second chance livesaccing, you do not get second chance offering corpse or vice versa - only one second chance.

There is a difference between the two situations - when live-saccing, as far as the game is concerned, you might be saccing for your own life (that is, sacrificing the being because otherwise it will kill you). On the other hand, sacrificing a corpse is purely a piety action. So there is some justification for the two situations behaving differently to each other. Note that I'm not saying that the current behaviours are suitable, just thought I'd throw in this perspective.
