It's worth mentioning that regardless of the arguments over station longevity/life span, allowing periodic respawns as actual crew will really screw over any active antags.
If a person was previously killed by one, they now know the identity of whomever is a murderer, ling, etc-etc. Even if they don't instantly call it out and get banned for meta, they'd passively either stay the fudge away from the bad guy or reactively have a shout ready if they get hit by them.
That's not even a quarter of the scenarios that could pop up due to respawns. Policing that kind of stuff would be a headache and a half.
