Killing Cayde established stakes.
Since then, no one had stayed dead. Savathun, Eramis, Osiris, Crow anyone and everyone in between.
In the final cutscene of the season, Elsie says to Anna look as a glow that seems reminiscent of a Ghost Revival lights the room.

From a story telling perspective I mostly agree. Only wrinkle there is that we’re in a setting where heroic people are specifically targeted for resurrection. So, technically, in any other universe it’d be horrible narrative management. In this one? I dunno. It fits. I’d take either fork in this road happily.
