We know that if you die while dreaming yourself in Teleranriod your body will die as well no matter how weakly you are in teleranriod.
For your interpretation to make sense we would have to assume that a 2/3 soul that remain in your body can function without the dead 1/3 soul that died in TAR. But soul can't be divided into parts and its center would be where the awareness was which was the part dying. Hence the rest would die as well as the body's death should show us.
Actually I don't think a soul is divided when you divide your attention is divided between your body and the dream. I'd guess your whole soul flickers back and forth between body and dream so when something happens to you in the dreamworld it happens to all of you.

Egwene and the WIse Ones don't know the most basic thing about Teleranriod

IIRC Nicola was killed by a Black Ajah Sister and Egwene had tried to save her.

right. but i dont think 'too strongly' ever means completely. maybe in the flesh or something

No, because Heroes and Wolves are both different from run of the mill humans

That's far from "the most basic" thing and it is entirely excusable that they do not know it.

You're caving to bias from being outside the story with more information than any single character.

Not @ all - if humans regularly go to TAR after they die, we'd have seen it already. Heroes would
