Why not add it? It might appease these 'leveling is too easy' folks. The fact is, even if you could de-level in this game from death, who cares? Leveling is so easy, you could get it back in no time at all! Might add at least a little bit of fright when dying, but it won't be like FF11 and be followed by complete despair when you realize it will take at least a whole day or two to get it all back.
