Why was Living Dead not removed?

But these people think it's fine, so it must be fine. Right?

No ulterior motives here.

You're right, there aren't any. In my experience playing DRK (mostly outside of Savage) and raiding with a DRK in my group (PLD+DRK for all of Stormblood), I really do think the complaints about Living Dead are exaggerated and that it's balanced with Holmgang and Hallowed.
