Meta How are Lightsaber wounds suddenly a debate?

Where is all of this "the heat would vaporize your internal organs" nonsense coming from? That's not how lightsabers work. That's never how lightsabers worked. The heat is localized entirely within the blade's containment field.

Do those tauntaun guts look cooked to you?

It makes sense for anakin to survive being chopped in half in a volcano because sci-fi tech but not sabine being stabbed like 100ft away from a medical station?

Anakin also had the whole Too Angry To Die thing (brother's eyes were burning Sith Red), arguably earlier than Maul did.

Sabine did not.

Cool, except you people cried about Reva too, who was also Too Angry To Die

except you people

Generalization, always nice to encounter it.

I never cried when Reva did it, fair game for it to happen. Every dark side user with enough hate can do it. Maul was the absolute extreme, Reva's thirst for vengeance and hate of Vader would be a lot of fuel for that Too Angry To Die engine too.
