So an open wound PLUS a broken-open skull is a
good thing, huh?

Please. It's the equivalent of installing a sliding door
for infections in your head!

   ....and let's not forget the brain injuries!  It's not like
they did (or even could) put the chunk of skull back,
allowing to to protect the brain from so much as the
slightest bump..

Yeah, sure, it's easy to image a great dela of things,
all these thousands of years later, our understanding of
human anatomy... the source of infections... why it's a
really bad idea to leave the brain unprotected...
