Defibs don't heal defibbed preternis, sometimes making them secretly and buggily undefibbable #10737
Description
Issue reported from Round ID: 33460 (Yogstation 13 RP)
Reporting client version: 513.1539
I noticed I met all the criteria for being defibbable, but I wasn't waking up when the CMO did the shocky thing. I asked admins to defib me and tell me what message popped up, suspecting a bug

-Sub-180 damage in burn and brute
-Ghost in body
-All organs in good-enough shape
-I was on a stasis bed so none of this changed between the attempted revive and the ghost healthscan
-Defibrillator reads "successful"
-Sad! Preternis stays dead
redmoogle says it's because I was damaged enough to have died in the first place, therefore I died again. I believe it.
With any species except preternis, the defib would heal the patient enough to live if the defib were successful.
Preternis don't get this healing for brute and burn because they don't get any such healing not specifically included in the shortsighted whitelist given to us by Alexkar, God of Preternii, so they die again instantly if their flesh wounds exceed 200 total, and no one involved gets any feedback as to that being the issue.
Time of death didn't reset and I didn't even appear in ghost deathrattles. By all appearances, except for the defib's "successful" message, I just never got revived.
There should either be some kind of feedback to clearly explain why it isn't working, or preternis should get the defib heal.
And unrelatedly, if you're going to give them the defib heal, kindly give them sentinel's compromise and vitality matrix and fleshmend and blood pylon healing while you're at it, because sometimes the healing that doesn't work on preternis even though it should by all sane reasoning is just dumb.
