Andrew’s own great grand-uncle, Edward VIII, was forced to give up the throne, stripped of real power, downgraded to Duke of Windsor, and effectively exiled from the country for the rest of his life, all over marrying a divorced woman.
That was the consequence for a marriage.
Andrew lost working royal status after documented Epstein ties and a civil settlement over sexual abuse allegations. If anything, precedent shows the monarchy has imposed harsher consequences for far less. This isn’t some mystical “sacrifice.” It’s damage control.
The family has thrown Andrew away hoping that would protect Charles, who is way worse - they have "sacrificed" the comparatively worse offender in an effort to save a worse offender (Charles)
“Unheard of”?

"sacrifice" is just a figure of speech, dude
same as "thrown under the bus"
"fall guy"
"patsy"
etc etc
