What I'd like to see is, instead of death at turn 50 or 75, just move the attackers to a friendly neighboring province, as if they had retreated. No need to auto-route the attacker at turn 50 either. The defender still has a chance to wipe out the entire attacking army, by cutting off all avenues of retreat.
That would actually be far worse punishment: you have to rescript your entire army, redistribute your troops among your commanders again, etc etc. So much hassle for what was, essentially, a defeat.

You had a good point about long battles, though.
It's a far worse punishment when units/commanders die because of a battle time limitation. It's only natural to want spending the time reorganizing the units/commanders instead of completely losing the units/commanders.
"Let's see 55 disorganized units and commanders of mine in my friendly provinces OR 55 DEAD units and commanders of mine. "
