Agree - I'd allow the paramedic skill to try and stabilize someone until they were at -10 hits/unreadable to Gold Cross (increasing difficulty obviously). I like the flavor text of giving them a permanent injury until they replace it with a new mechanical or cloned body part replacement. No reason Gold Cross can't make replacement parts :)
You can't make peds immune to damage though - the duel has to end

I also made death a bit less digital. Death became permanently injured. For the purposes of the combat you were still out of action, but after the action if your friends could get to you within an hour there was a chance you could be saved but with a permanent injury (that ultimately could be fixed with expensive prosthetics).
I preferred this to reliance on whole body cloning.
