Like the Uroxi, warriors who already consider themselves dead, and whom no-one would miss if they died again, have uses. If Delecti opens a branch near you, will you send your brothers, or the clan Humakti? If you see portents that a trip to Snakepipe Hollow might be profitable? They are Dead Men Walking, they have nothing left to fear. Stick them in the front line, and hope the second line isn't needed.

They hate it happening, but if it's happened, the returnee frequently feels he is still dead (it says here...) and so takes up the way of Humakt. Then it can't happen again.
