Why? Don't eat mealy crawfish, that's the only rule I employ. If the tail breaks apart before it comes out of the shell it's usually not getting eaten by me. If it comes out perfectly with a bit of fat on it I don't care if it died before it went into the boil.

Why not? I'd rather do the work and save my guests from the hassle. It's an easy task.

This could also mean that it is over cooked. A dead crawfish will have shrivelled up deteriorated looking meat that will not taste good.
It's best in my opinion to take them out. Usually the deads will float to the top if you wash them properly.
