Honestly, even if a resurrection of Pyrrha in the actual show itself is done right, it can lead people to ask "Then what was the point of having Pyrrha die? Just so Ruby would activate her Silver Eye powers? Weren't there other ways of doing that? Was it also to get RNJR to go search for Cinder? With the way Cinder caused the Fall of Beacon, that's plenty of motivation without her also killing Pyrrha. Why kill Pyrrha just to bring her back later?"

I dunno, for whatever reason, the death of a major character needs to have story-telling reasons behind it.
