They never try this method, and as mentioned true resurrection and likely withers both seem capable of using true resurrection wich creates a brand new body. (hell if you resist as a dark urge withers brings you back despite bhall removing his godly essence) The game never acknowledges the idea of removing the tadpoles in this way, it studiously disallows you from ever discussing or touching on the idea by erasing your companions tadpoles from existence.The story kinda make it clear. Conventional methods doesn't work since our tadpole is in special circumstances, even if the tadpole itself is not special. There is nothing implying simply being dead will free them, it's just your assumption because we get to take other true soul's tadpole after they die, not to mention they may have to remain dead if their tadpole is taken and obviously they don't want that. Masterblack did raise a good point with that they have a hole in their brain and dies again soon after.
You are being obtuse and quite literally ignoring the main plot of the game.
No I just understood the main plot of the game unlike some people in this thread (cough look in a mirror cough) who for some reason have it in their heads our tadpoles are super special compared to all the other netherese touched tadpoles in the game.
It's not a huge deal, as mentioned I would have much prefer the game at least mention this way of removal because it's quite literally the main one described in older editions, rather then studiously ignoring it when we have at least two methods of high tier resurrection on hand. Its never stated why destroying the tadpoles would block true resurrection, the idea simply doesn't exist within the game we're presented. Again Id much prefer the ability to jack our companions tadpoles at the cost of no ressing, as my dark urge solo run could really use those extra early game tadpoles.
