Well, "The Mousetrap" isn't really an interpretation of "The Altar;" we were given it to get some context on historical and religious aspects of the poem, because, as was pointed out during class, there is no way that we could have arrived at the interpretation we did if not for knowing about the debate over the Eucharist that was going on during the time the poem was written.
So I rather disagree that it wasn't relevant, because we only got half the story without any historical context.
