The Wizard’s oath was specifically about fighting entropy, and that’s problematic because living things depend on entropy. Fighting entropy isn’t the same as fighting death.
II just looked up the wording of the oath, and entropy doesn’t actually enter into it (it also does say “I will put aside fear for courage, and death for life.”) It’s true that the characters often talk about fighting entropy, but it doesn’t seem like it’s ever been an accurate description of what they do.
