Hey, thank you for contacting me on such matters.

So, the thing is that while exhaustivity of information is great, ergonomy is also great. If we put every status in the avatar, the text begins to cover the avatar and then user had trouble looking at it. So I've been narrowing status to what I consider the most significant status. On that point, I will recognize that I'm certainly not doing the best job and it is arguable what the most significant status is for a particular character in one chapter.

For instance, I think the "death" status is best applied to on-screen deaths, not those that are stated but not shown like for Dario and Mary Joestar. That is arguable and is probably worthy of further discussion.

Also, it's best that we use "Retired" instead of particular status for standardization purposes. Retired meaning "this guy is not dead, dead, but he definitively lost and won't threaten the good guys again." That's why I changed the status for Santana and Kars.
