[ranty lash-out mode on]
Some days I wonder what the hell you're on.
Save / Load either creates a savestate, a snapshot of the current universe, or restores said snapshot. Reloading and finding your assets still blown to bits is something else. Having the assets blown to bits over the course of the gameplay is expected, but restoring a former savestate restores these as well. Stop being queer for queerness sake and trying to redefine things humpty-dumpty style. I don't give a flying hoot how YOU want to call it, the underlying principle has been a near-constant in over 30 years of games and game development.
Or: A savegame is a savegame is a savegame.
In before "because of H-Tech".

As for your precious immersion: I couldn't care less. I see uses for a respawn mechanism in an "iron man" style game, but the purists would probably kvetch that this waters down the challenge.
