Better to create a GET-TXIN-BLOCK-(TIME/HEIGHT)-EQUALVERIFY operator. scriptPubKey would be:

    GET-TXIN-BLOCKHEIGHT-EQUALVERIFY

(fails unless top stack item is equal to the txin block height)

    <delta height> ADD

(top stack item is now txin height + delta height)

    CHECKLOCKTIMEVERIFY

You'd want these sacrifices to unlock years into the future to thoroughly exceed any reasonable business cycle; that's so far into the future that miners are almost certain to just mine them and collect the fees.
