I was about to reply with this in text to @Nerovar, but the visual edit makes this joke much better. Cheers. And yeah, don't think about it too hard, the writers certainly didn't. On one hand I can't blame them since lore on the topic is such a shitshow, see that bit in Icecrown where a paladin dies so you stitch him together from bits you dig out of several different abominations with needle and thread and he's somehow fully alive again. Not zombified, just a regular living dude. Not even that sad about it.
Then again, that's no excuse since knowing this you should never have touched the concept in the first place.
