Yes they could spend hundreds of thousands of gp in diamonds (or diamond dust) in order to be resurrected without loss of level at nauseum but that would be hundreds of thousands not spent on a pretty flowers or such things. Keep in mind that most rich people don't just have the gold (or diamond dust) just lying around. Yes they could afford it but it comes at a price of their riches. Plus it relies on people wanting to bring them back. Plus it relies on them wanting to come back. And as already stated, it doesn't prolong their life (afiak).Also, I'm assuming the ways to bring back the dead are primarily employed by adventurers. And after several years of playing DnD I can confidently say, not by the majority of our adventurers. (Hell, we've had PCs turned to stone that we haven't un-turned to stone.) And finally, the rules are built for such adventurers because they are the player characters playing a roleplaying game. Emphasis on the GAME aspect.</blockquote>
