I interpreted it as the humans who said “wow true” to it being a good easy to see if the place was healthy were assuming liver damage from eg heavy metals in the water sources in the area or something, but in reality the rabbit livers don’t tell you much about the area, just whether the rabbits themselves were degenerate drunks 😂
In my head, maybe based on reading, this sort of divination doesn’t have much connection ot the health of whatever, but is based on the reading of the random shape/orientation something takes when cast… so that was an extra layer I had to get through because that kind of reading wouldn’t detect cirrohsis.

Edit: I have defamed the science of entrail reading! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haruspex
i think especially the color was being evaluated for animal livers. which does correlate to various things.
Today’s random deep dive:

Does look like a examination of the liver itself.
