That last point is also why we (the people who keep saying she's dead) insist she's dead. If she's just brought back, it'd be cheap, it'd make her last fight meaningless and empty in how easy it was to get her back. A flashback would be good though (though there may be questions of "why didn't we see this before" if it's an original scene). I still would love a prerecording Pyrrha made that makes Jaune cry (if only because I'm just weak to that stuff...among other romance tropes provided they're done moderately well).

The problem I have with people making the theories is that they seem to be saying it straight faced. Like it's completely plausible she's alive and wasn't  shot in the heart, incinirated from the inside out starting with her heart, stopped breathing, and then disintigrated. People are like "no no, she can survive if this happened" or "maybe Amber's alive too and harbors Pyrrha's soul" despite no in-universe example of it being done before.

I want theories, but I don't want people acting as though these people didn't just die in the last 2 episodes.
