Wardens should be unkillable, to emphasize that it's meant to be avoided

Mojang has stated that the Warden is not meant to be a mob for players to defeat or farm for drops, it's meant to be avoided. So why not make it unkillable? You can still damage it, and it has a large amount of health, but once you kill it, it'll drop dead for a while, before getting back up again. That way you actually have to play with its mechanics of being blind, avoiding it, instead of trying to kill it with a bunch of arrows from afar or by using maxed-out equipment. Players shouldn't be able to cheese the Warden by trapping it in boats or blocks, either. That'll make it a bit more terrifying, and not just some random tough mob that you kill for drops.

    There's an old maxim in Dungeons and Dragons:  If you stat it, they will kill it.  If the warden is meant to be avoided, then make that a feature.  No way to damage it, period.  Make it despawn if you right click it in creative mode, but explicitly make it something that cannot die.
