It’s to honor the sacrifice made. Although in the end it wasn’t really a sacrifice, not even the prophesied three full days. Just a long weekend with the payoff being returned to godhood. What the writers should have done is made it so Jesus was still in hell being tortured for our sins until the end days. That would be more of a plotline to suggest a sacrifice.
I often feel Christianity is far the most confused on the Abrahamic faiths. Judasim and islam are increasingly becoming more corrupted 20th century onwards but Christianity was confused by the time jesus was dead. Whatever the Romans practiced was miles away from what Jesus spoke about and whatever America practices today is essentially the anti Christ
