How does that make it not ghoulish?
Not quite as ghoulish. Say 99% as ghoulish.
Exactly. I’m not saying it’s fine, just not as terrible as you might originally think.
I’m not sure if that’s a distinction worth making in this case
I’m not sure if this was a comment worth making, yet here you are.

“We were gonna skin Val and attach that to an advanced robotics puppet, but the studio said that was 100% ghoulish.”
“oddly, he had that explicitly prohibited in his will”
The victim had a choice.
When the Lich King gives you a choice, its ethical necromancy.
