Most of the definition of harm and its related terms are along the lines of pain, comfort, psychological wellbeing, and capacity to DO things.
So by those, most of the meaning of 'harm' is removed for a dead, non-thinking human body.
But it is still questionable for sure, and you'd think it's simplest by far for that clause to be voided for dead humans... However, with the easily available ability to bring a corpse back to life, it complicates things; a corpse still has the potential to live, so would preventing that revival not constitute harm in some way?
