5 I know He had the power to remain alive if He chose. He also had the power to lay down His life if He chose. It is my opinion, unsubstantiated by a witness, that the blood allowed death, while the light of God in his veins allowed for immortality. He died and the blood was purged from His system.

So perhaps symbolically speaking, the shedding of His blood was required for at least 2 reasons:

1. The weight of the sins (&/or consequences of sins) of humanity squeezed that light from Him in Gethsemane, allowing Him to be able to physically die.

2. We couldn't get that light any other way. Every week we symbolically eat His flesh (in an attempted spiritual transplantation to incorporate His nature) and drink His blood (in an attempted spiritual blood transfusion). We would like our fallen, mortal blood to be replaced by His living water of eternal life.
