I think both actually make sense like, at the moment they happened--because at that point, we didn't know how often the kids themselves would morph themselves out of life-threatening injuries or fatal situations, OR just how secretive and valued the morphing technology was to the Andalites. They're both kind of retroactive plot holes I guess is what I'm saying--at that point, it was perfectly valid for us to assume that every cadet is given a morphing cube upon completion of basic training (why? who cares?) and that morphing is impossible to do when fatally injured. It's just later plot details that ruin both of those.

and come on, those are by far NOT the only plot holes in the series.
