Summoning temporary undead is such a turnoff for the necromancer fantasy IMO. Also, Occult seems straight up wrong for the master of life and death. Divine is right there. But like, if they kept all of the mechanics and design direction for this intact but called it an Illusionist, I'd be all over it.

Divine magic is drawn from the gods, while creating false life is a perversion of the gods' natural order. It's very explicitly anti-divine. Meanwhile, Occult magic is about Fucking Around and hoping to not Find Out. Bending or breaking the divine order is exactly what it's there for.
