2a. Ishmael defines erratic relations as a way of preventing war between the cawks. The cawks have developed it to prevent all out war while still punishing those who do wrong. If a group tribesmen came and killed some people, they would only punish the group, not start an all out war.
2b. Not only does it prevent all out war between two tribes, but it keeps both sides relatively happy. The ones who the crime was against would get their revenge, and those from the other tribe would not be in an all out war and be able to continue their lives!
2c. The reason they do not have all out war is because they want a future for their race. They want to be able to expand and reproduce, until one tribe becomes big and proves it dominance and have one large tribe for their race.
