What even is the consequence for running out of lives anymore?
"Oh no! I ran out of lives! Now I have to restart the stage! Again..."
It's an outdated system. Yeah you lose the checkpoint but it's still not that big a deal.
It's not a big deal to you, but I could see a younger kid who actually had a difficult time getting through a stage and just finally managed to get that checkpoint being VERY afraid of getting a game over. Heck, some of the more challenging levels in DKCR had me afraid of getting a game over which is turn motivated me more into actually trying.
