Maybe the thunder gods have gotten tired of waiting.

Burnt offerings were a common sacrifice in many cultures. Most gods loved a good BBQ.

Oh yes. The smoke carried the substance of the offering to the Gods. The symbolism - at least in IE cultures - was that the humans invited the Gods to a common meal. And the Gods repaid the favor by granting prayers. Gift exchanges like that lie deep in the human psyche.

But why do the lightning bolts all peter out after 23 animals?

It all comes back to a Jim Carrey film from 2007.

Wait, a conspiracy theory was officially declared void, and nobody here took notice?
So, the Bielefeld Conspiracy is no more. The city offered 1 million Euro for anybody that could prove it doesn't exist. People really tried, but nobody could convince the The Bielefeld Conspiracy is dead and was put to rest. They even donated some kind of tombstone. https://www.thelocal.de/20190918/bie...rary-announced

Of course, that's what they want you to believe.
