Well maybe Sarlacc just tastes like ass to the point that pretty much anything else is preferable. Wouldn't surprise me.This makes 0 sense. No predator will abandon its big, delicious, almost ready to eat meal for a smaller, less desirable one. Krayt Dragons don't consider humans "delicacy" so it should've not even reacted apart from glancing at the boy to gauge the threat.
Okay, so I think there's a pretty large narrative problem with this whole thing and it pretty much ties directly into that Other M comparison I made previously. Why hasn't Cam said "fuck the rite" and lost the anti-Force bracers yet? He openly admits in his narration that without that handicap he could take on one or both of them without too much trouble and we know from his earlier shenanigans that the bracers only have any influence over him so long as he chooses to allow it. So why the actual Sith hells hasn't he gotten rid of them yet?
Seriously, not only is it a good chance to show his development and how he's benefitted from what is effectively resistance training with spiritual weights on, to do otherwise is so foolish I'd have to conclude that deep down he wants to die. Sure he wants to pass the rite, but he already acknowledged there's no dishonor in nopeing the fuck out of this situation. There is just no galaxy no matter how long ago or far away where keeping those damned things on under the current circumstances makes sense.
I mean, I'm open to being talked around on this, but yeah...I just don't see it.
EDIT: To put this much more succinctly: in every other instance he decided to fight with a handicap, the stakes were much lower. In this case his life is genuinely imperiled.
