Gives me Warhammer 40k vibes of the Cult Mechanicus, where they are so backwards and conservative with their culture, rather than learn and innovate, they prefer to worship tech as an unknowable knowledge given by God, anointing their computers with oils and prayers instead of actually fixing the issues.

Whoever came up with the Mechanicus must have worked in IT/mechanics before because after 14 hours on what should have been a 10 minute fix, you start thinking the machine took one of your curses personally.

I see it as beneficial to the mechanicum. Ritual ensures proper maintenance and assembly.
