Frankly, it applies because each death and remorse scene has been a failure on one level or another. It doesn't matter if they come back or not. All that maters is that the death scenes and remorse work.

Mettle's was the closest to really working, but was botched by the buildup and the morning period was an utter failure with the line "My Boyfriend exploded all over me!"

Nico's is second, but it really doesn't read well. A motherly character not thinking of her family as she dies? That just doesn't work. It doesn't matter that she's back, her death scene sucked. The art was ugly and the dull colors really hurt. How does "Blood on snow" not call for a vibrant pallet?

Kid Briton is third. He got a burial. And not a word afterwards.

Juston: thrown away. Red Raven: A Joke.

So, out of 5 death scenes, we have 1.5 that work in total (giving half a point ot each one that sort of works, but fails). That's a 30% rate. That's a failure.

And that's why people call it a meat grinder. The deaths really don't matter for the most part, or the ones that 'do' are done so poorly they might as well not matter.
