The thing about Aztecs and human sacrifice is that they did it to peoples that were captured on the battlefield. And the Aztecs went to war intending to capture, not kill most of the time. The killing happened after the battle.
So really, it's not all that different in terms of lives being taken from a standard war. It's just done in a different way.
