It still doesn't help. I could see the point in a drow orgasming from eating another drow. Or even ordering another drow to eat someone. But from a drow in her womb that she has no control over eating its twin? That doesn't encourage any sort of behavior, beyond getting pregnant and hoping they get lucky. And you can do that a lot better just by making them orgasm from the act of getting pregnant.
If you don't see how a literal Darwinian struggle resulting in both physical pleasure and a direct demonstration of your god's philosophy follows a logical chain of thought that's just a straight up skill issue.
Would it help if you knew that they live in the Underdark, aka the womb of the earth, and their ultimate goal is to burst out of that womb and reconquer the sunlit surface?
Like, it's not really subtle once you have the required background lore. Pretty blatant metaphor, in fact.
