An (un)fortunate side effect of the lightsaber is that victims who are merely
wounded seem unlikely to die of a grisly infection, what with the cauterization

The Tusken peddler who next visited the village must have been pleasantly
surprised, though:
"Now lookee here, whoever massacred this here village sure did do a nice job in
closing up all of them there wounds. It sure do make the clean-up a whole lot
easier, though, don't it?"
