I think this is the biggest mistake you are making McNeo. Roleplaying emulates reality, it is not reality. In fact, the word play is part of the word itself. If it was a Freelancer reality server... well, I was going to provide examples about time and age but you get the point.

Look, my point is that we are playing roles within a gaming system, not a real life system. I'm actually a reenactor in real life and I do the same sort of stuff.... If I'm reenacting a 16th century mercenary and I get a giant gash from a halberd I'm going to go to the hospital, not put leeches on my wound, suture, and pray to god.

The drawbacks of having a perma-death type system far outweigh the benefits of "more real".
