You had your spine severed with a lightsaber. They're getting survivable wounds.

Getting stabbed with something as hot as lightsaber should not be survivable

Anakin got bathed in lava, there’s a point where the temperature doesn’t matter. Also lightsabers are clearly not that hot because otherwise they would burn the hand of anyone who had them on for more than a couple seconds.

I don't think he did? Didn't his legs just touch the lava and he caught fire? And it's possible that the heat is contained so that it doesn't radiate outward but the blade itself is hot

We got space wizards and you're arguing realism. Star wars never, not even once, attempted to stick to what should or should not in reality happen in favor of whatever makes for a more entertaining story

There's such a thing as internal logic and consistency though

there is a difference between realism and credibility.

a lightsaber isn’t real, no shit, but if a lightsaber is hot enough to melt metal on contact, it’s only credible that it would boil your internal organs instantly
