its not just a king vs commoner thing either. sacrifices are frequently denigrated like all vedic ritualism that seeks selfish material boons, and as such it is contrasted with pure bhkati. and its not infrequently especially so denigrated because of its violence. but here its promoted. I'm sure commentators would say its different because he offered up all the fruits of his actions to krishna instead of desiring selfish reward. but still.

many particular afterlives to suit the preferences and merits of souls only makes sense among the (fully, if this qualifier need be said because as far as know there is no partial liberation) liberated if you 1. are not a universalist, believing in eternal lesser states according to some merit 2. believe "individual" atman are essentially different from one another, carrying this difference even when theyve realized themselves or 3. believe that God is unfair (as this book states earlier, these outcomes are not considered equal, all are free of suffering but not all are equally blissful)
why not just kaishmir shaivi mode and say "all merge wholly into brahman in the end"?? it resolves so many problems!

agree on all counts except I think while all is consciousness, vibrating consciousness (energy) can be called both real and unreal, for consciousness is ultimately perfectly static
