You miss my point. With enough consumables only a TPK is permanent.
D&D teaches all the important lessons in life - the low blow, the cheap shot, the back stab, the double cross. - Jerry Marsischky

Let them trap us. We have our swords. - Elric of Melnibone.

You try to get them to play the game, but all they want to do is play the rules. - Ardak Kumerian

I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend - Faramir

Well sure - but presumably such things won't be necessary.

It's pretty easy to get a TPK when you find a sphere of annihilation on the mouth of a statue.

PoDD doesn't help in this case (nothing but Wish Ring or Savior Stone does).

Spoilers!!

Also I doubt we'll see exactly that in the TD version.

Without spoilers, there are a number of things in Tomb of Horrors that have that result. Break out the wish rings...

I am both dreading and looking forward to the Tomb of Terrors puzzle rooms.

If it is intended to be anything like my favorite adventure module of all time whose name rhymes with Shmoom of Shmorrors, there will be more puzzle rooms that deal damage and/or do strange effects to the party just from interacting with the puzzle than there will be combat rooms with actual monsters.

Funny enough, I hinted at this while building at Origins - there was an archway that wasn't an entrance or exit in E2 and I was telling someone they should put three glyphs on it at the top and bottom corners as a red herring/nod to the ToH...
