The answer to the druid and metal armor is excellent. Not so much the ruling itself, but the clear way it explains that classes have both story and game elements, and some classes have more story elements than others.
And yet, Superman or Goku could fly through an Anti-Magic Field with no problems. Nor would it stop Cyclops from shooting concussive force from his eyes.Magic. Magic is how dragons breathe fire. "Wonky physics" is called magic.
And that's perfectly fine. (Heck, I just mentioned it as a narration that a lot of people would expect!) But it's in house rule territory, that's all.I am specifically rejecting the idea of skeletons etc. not being sustained by magic.

The comparison is decent, but not strong enough for me. A druid's feelings toward metal armor and shields is more like the Jewish or Muslim aversion for unclean meat and pork. Much more serious consequences there than just a vegetarian eating meat.
You can just change the duration of animate dead to permanent and fluff however you would like. Much like the druid armor, it's a pretty trivial change.I guess you could say that the spell summons a spirit and binds it to the remains and then it makes sense.
I'm gonna guess that, while that is a pretty good analogy, that a multinational corporation is going to avoid anything to do with a loaded subject like religion so as to not raise the ire of paying customers that adheres to either of those faiths or competing ones as well as those that reject faith outright. Religion and Politics. In professional (technical, marketing, development) writing you are trained to avoid both.
Vegetarians? Pffft. They don't count - and they tend to have a decent sense of humor.
