I haven't died in enough places to know about the difficulty of getting back to your grave, but most of you are high levels who can count on high levelled friend to bless your grave and give you an hour. However, people like me and other low levelled characters either don't have this blessing or don't have enough money to buy a long lasting grave stone. Because of this, when we die, it is serious trouble to get back to our graves in time. For example, I died on White Wolf Mountain when I was level 60 something without any protect prayers to a double agent from a clue scroll. Despite it being there, I could only afford a three minute grave, and wasn't able to reach it in time. I lost about 300k worth of stuff- which was most of my wealth at the time. Although that might not be much to you, I don't have much money, and my total wealth is probably under 700k now, at level 76... Although higher level players might always be able to get to their grave in time, not all people can, so dying can seriously hurt lower level people.
