Honestly skill drain is garbage and needs an option to disable without mods. Skills take long enough to level up and one glitch death can make you lose upto 5 skill levels (at skill 100) which is just awful.

I always hated that sense of loss in progress, like what is even the point if you lose 5 skills points in your best skill at death? Plus some deaths are just bs like the you are hunted event with wolves spawning on you.

The point is obvious.

It's to use your loss aversion to induce a sense of danger in the game. Otherwise, you would run recklessly. The would have a total other feeling is this penalty wasn't there.
