Some people seem to be under the belief that a character coming back from x amount of damage off-screen is assuming that said character was able regenerate from said damage, which is wrong; Unless proven otherwise, that character is coming back from the damage, assumptions would be to say that other character healed him when this was never implied. This sometimes is because some people thinks that Regenerationn is a power that only character with a demonstrated healing factor should have, which is a pretty one sided mentality.
Of course, this only becomes a problem when the type of regen a character demonstrates is somethings ridiculous like High-Mid or Low-Godly. But this is no excuse, coming back from any amount of damage qualifies as regen unless proven otherwise. Proven otherwise with, you know, valid arguments, I have seem someone trying to deny Low-Godly regen of a character by saying that other character may have revived said character. When this was never implied and there is no characters able to do that in its respective verse.
But this goes even worst when the damage the character takes is cartoonish or in games when some character seemly lose all of his body via exploiting, vanishing into nothing, burning and more. Which is still no excuse.

- If a character takes that type of cartoonish damage Toon Force may as well be a thing in his verse. Toon Force may or may not allow stuff such as all of this, the damage being cartoonish or a gag isn't necessarily a valid explanation deny the regen. Considering the consistency of the regen and the amount of toon force of the verse seems like a better way to judge those cases.
- And then games... If someone explodes in a movie it's fine, if someone explodes in a book it's fine, but if someone explodes in a game some people believe that this isn't fine. Only if they come back tho, if they don't then sure why not, they exploded.... Which is a pretty horrible logic. How is that judged? Does the exploration has to be graphic? At what point exploiting becomes applicable? Putting that situation in that kind of subjective thoughts that vary depending on each person is something that should not be done. As I said before, if you can provide evidence of the regen not being a thing via valid stuff in the verse you can prevent the character from getting regen, but if not then one should accept that coming back from anything off-screen is Regenerationn.
