There are other (non-Roman) sources describing child sacrifice in Phoenician societies.

Yeah, but they weren't exactly friends with the Phoenicians either, were they?

[ffgjgf1]

Why didn’t they accuse their other enemies of this?

Anyway, on balance I think it’s pretty reasonably to say that it’s more likely that Carthaginians practiced child sacrifice to some extent.
