I believe it is purely down to laziness by the game developers

it was just easy to mark them as undead

they deserve their own category with the detect life spell

The definition of dead by most fantasy realms is pretty controversial with modern-day science

if like 18th-century thinking

oo so why cut your head off so your dead  uu no not in till your brain activity has fully shut down

Every year as the understanding of the brain and of the body increases the definition of death becomes more and more abstract

Anything with brain activity is alive is slightly how think of it ) obviously it's more complicated than that)

I always play as a vampire Lord just because I wish to live forever
