And you're too dense to understand that literally every human being who's ever lived or ever will is capable of drawing the inherent connection between the skull and crossbones and death, due to the inherent relationship between them.

Literally Carl Sagan even proposed using the symbol. Is he too dense to understand too?

[...] the inherent connection between the skull and crossbones and death

YES, WHICH IS CONNECTED TO GRAVES, AND THUS VALUABLES

Which part of this sentence is too complex for you?

Not every grave contains valuables, and ones that do would be marked with more elaborate symbols and ornamentation.

Nobody's tombstone has a skull and crossbones on it, your argument is completely detached from reality

There are literally millions of graves without elaborate symbols or ornamentation, but with valuables. What the fuck?
