It is not entirely accurate to say there is no death penalty. There is a very very small penalty for your casual player, and a very severe penalty for your hardcore pve player. This works out really well I think because it keeps motivating the elite and does not penalize the casual. You could probably write an entire book on just how much better WoWs game design is compared to everything that came on the market before it.
