Why would it? Cargo Cutlting is when you believe that doing something symbolic will have a tangible effect on the world (e.g. bring you cargo from the sky), but this is just intended to be symbolic.

I was curious, and you’re right. It would be Cargo Culting then, if we believed the ritual actually had an effect on Pratchett in the afterlife.
