I even thought is Sloane's horror at the news she's been cremated not at the destruction of her body, but at the prospect of her ashes spreading on the wind?
I think there are a number of reasons for his horror--certainly, the lack of closure is part of it. Also, of course, because she's been cremated he won't be able to use any Rambaldi magic to bring her back to life. And finally (unstated in this piece) religious prohibitions aside, American Jews are often reluctant to consider cremation, for historical reasons. But that depends on whether or not one thinks Sloane is Jewish--I can't recall whether that was established in canon.
