Ouch!A friend was once given a biopsy by a sleep-deprived junior doctor.
They needed a sample of his colon, so inserted the long bendy jaws-on-the-end thingy, located the suspect area and... he shot through the ceiling. Doctor had forgotten to administer any anaesthetic.
What was your ouchiest moment?

People dying means more resources for the rest, so funerals should be paid for by everyone else.(

Er, they are. People pay for the extra, above-bog-standard bells-and-whistles, like a decent coffin, a moving service, triangular sandwiches for the reception, and so forth. But the basics are free, if you choose (/are left with no option but) to avail yourself of the service.
If one concludes that the niceties you pay for pay for to make your loved one's funeral specifically tailored to him/her are analogous to the tarmac and road furniture used to make the public highway more specifically tailored for cars, we're essentially in agreement that the basics are free, and you pay for the extras.
