The manga is written for mostly pre-teen boys who often forget what they just read after 10 minutes. So Kishimoto has to keep hammering themes home. Hell, even Itachi was basically repeating what he said in previous chapters. Even if the readers should know by now the ninja system sucks, Kishi has to give yet more examples.
I hope Sakura becomes a nun now.
