I think you're confusing the original Metroid with Super Metroid. In the original, she bursts into particle effects upon death. It's not until Super Metroid that the armor actually disappears briefly on death, but by then the "secret" was already well known. https://youtu.be/OUNb_DF1zwI?si=bIjQfvjoQTiXRBjo
