I disagree, I think it's funny as long as this is all theory.
If a player was actually serious about wanting to do this as more than a meme, and was arguing this hard for it I'd be mad as hell. In this context, though? It's fine. I think it's amusing how hard people can stretch the rules. It's similar to the peasant railgun. Hilarious concept. I'm still not okay with someone trying to actually use a peasant railgun.
In theory, sure. But not with OP saying "Nah-uh" to everything. There's just no fun to be had.
And I really enjoy arguing about game mechanics, just look back at me talking about that insect swarm/animal shapes nonsense people who know nothing about the game came up with.
I'd say I'd agree but there is no stretching here, you'd have to rule that a creature that is missing every part of its body is alive. You'd also have to rule that a pile of dust has a maximum HP of more than 0, or else you'd also be dead instantly.
You'd never get a death save, your already dead.
