I don't think any of the devs have gone so far as to say "Life=good" "death=evil". Just simply that the two forces are diametrically opposed to each other. Just like you can't take both life and death books in MOM, and Life magic users and Death magic users don't generally get along...

I'm so looking forward to a mod where the first turn we witness dragons being slaughtered by bunnies and the player hopes to find the cotton sword of candy in order to defeat said bunnies before they invade his town. Actually that sounds like a lot of fun.

I don't know how common the strategy is, but I once played starcraft against a zerg guy who made nothing but guardians and overlords. I couldn't kill the guardians because I couldn't target them through the mass flood of overlords.

My intent is to clean the sticky patches with distilled water and cotton swabs. I'm optimistic, because I haven't been able to smell ozone on it, so I don't think anything got torched.

The game is being built the exact same way you would mod it. There's no reason to alter the source code.
