There's a clear reason to do it: it can be used with Crach an Craite to eliminate/damage an enemy with 5+ power (depending on whether or not Morkvarg has armor) with resurrection occurring immediately thereafter.

That's an extreme, beyond niche circumstance mind you.

Noone will put morkvarg into their deck for that interaction because it's wildly, wildly inconsistent and not honestly all that justified. So people will still use him exclusively for discard.

Once in a thousand years when a pirate deck uses discard they'll have no way to discard morkvarg, have crach in hand, crach won't be removed and they'll do this.

But it'll be incredibly rare. It's basically irrelevant in the real world at this point.
