One of my last posts on 4chan before I cease to interact with these anon web platforms.
"Big funeral" (greedy minority in funeral industry) makes massive profit off of mark ups and up sells on emotionally valued items, such as more expensive caskets, perhaps of a special wood, metal, or comfort. They even market caskets you are burned in, so that things are nicer and comfier (pillows) when you go to ashes.
Big funeral does not like green burials. Green burials are cheaper, use simple wood containers, and are... Green.
Green burials also have a naturalistic appeal that many will like, as well as competitive rates, even to cremations.
Keep things unnatural as possible to make more money. Make people find bleak value in fake, shallow things, versus the real deal (pussy, earth, sunlight, etc).

I mentioned this a few years ago. Same post, verbatim:
My culture still uses ossuaries, though the tradition is slowly dying out due to the costs of allowing a body to decay naturally and collecting and washing the bones after so cremation has become more commonplace. Certain religious groups don't allow cremation so despite its growing popularity, I don't think our traditional burial and bone collection will ever go away completely.
The weirdest thing, those who opt for cremation still put the ashes into a fucking ossuary, go figure. Our family crypt is full of ossuaries dating back hundreds of years and one collection of ashes: my mother's.
So that's fun.
I think this anti-traditional burial thing is mostly an Anglo problem.
Chatgpt has this to add about our "grave leasing"/"grave recycling" system, as foreigners derisively call it:
>Exhumation and relocation
When graves are reused, older remains may be:
• Transferred to an ossuary (“cappella delle ossa” style), where bones are stored for a family crypt
• Relocated to smaller containers (like boxes or urns) collectively with other remains
• Composted or reburied in another plot, depending on local law and tradition
This is common in urban cemeteries where space is tight.
So there you have it.
