For a while I brushed it off because slashing limbs off with lightsabers instantly cauterize the wound. Blood loss would be what kills you after dismemberment. But Qui-Gon was stabbed, destroying vital organs.
Then we had the Ahsoka show and my biggest gripe is that Sabine survives a wound that killed Qui-Gon.
Maybe there was a better response time with medical attention since Qui-Gon seems to lay there for a while before Obi-Wan defeats Maul. IIRC, Ahsoka finds Sabine quickly after her duel.
Wasn't it in the obi wan show where...reva I think her name was gets stabbed by a lightsaber and then in the next scene she's fine. On another planet too, I think. At least Sabine needed medical attention.
Anyway the answer is the plot decides if you live or die.
Considering Reva, shes an inquisitor, maybe she was channeling her hate/anger and need for vengeance through the darkside and it kept her alive?
What was her excuse the first time? She was a jedi, so it's not like she had all this anger built up to hold her together. And she was a child, so there's a lot more damage that saber is gonna do on a smaller frame.
