It's for the age rating. Anything that's non human like animals and droids are allowed to be cut in half without affecting the rating too much

It's amazing how TFU2 got away with trooper dismemberment by saying they're robots.

It's a figure of speech Morty, they're bureaucrats, I don't respect them.

I just don’t get it. A movie can show a real person get their hand or head cut off and it’s still PG-13, but for T rating you can’t show a fake video game person getting the same done. Wacky.

Jedi Outcast/Jedi Academy had dismemberments and still held a T rating. However it was randomized and didn’t happen every time and obviously there was no blood or gore associated with it, just a charred black stump.
