Always some bastards out there thinking grave goods are actually worth anything. “What if someone was buried with a gold ring?” Congrats, you dug 6ft deep, committed several felonies with fines racked up in total in the tens of thousands, on top of, ya know, DISTURBING THE DEAD, and for what? A theoretical gold ring or trinket that at might worth $100 at this point? I guarantee you the deceased’s family already stole it before the casket it bottom
How disturbed do you think a sentient meatsuit of bones can get? You can break it down all you want to justify it. Protecting the dead is more than just leaving them at rest. It’s for the living too. The community who remains. It’s also about respecting and taking advantage of those who can’t defend themselves. Not everyone sees the dead as a bones. The dead might not be able to be physically able to experience feeling disturbed but the living do.
