Onan and his brother were not struck dead just because they pulled out. They were struck dead because they pulled out so they wouldn’t impregnate their dead brother’s wife. It was their job to be kinsman redeemers of their deceased brother’s line. The child they put in her would be considered her dead husband’s child, thus redeeming his family line and returning everyone’s inheritance back to a one third share. They were struck dead for being greedy because they didn’t want their inheritance divided 3 ways.

I mean, it’s not like God struck Ruth or her partner dead when she gave him a BJ.

Wrong.

The older brother was struck down, and Onan was next in line. He was struck down because he used her to get his rocks off while trying to avoid impregnating her.

He could have deferred to a more junior male. You mentioned Ruth. Boaz wasn't next in line, but he made an agreement with the unnamed kinsman who was next in line.
