[General Fiction] In worlds where Necromancy/Necromancers are a known threat, why would people ever bury the dead?

Necromancy is fairly common in worlds with magic, and even if it is seen as a taboo, surely it's existence would mean that cremation is a lot more prevalent, since people don't want their loved ones to be desecrated and attack them.

What counters do they have against this, and how is this dark magic even regulated?

In a fair few settings not only is  necromancy a thing but so are gods and dieties, so many dead get placed into protected tombs or temples with armed followers with the protection of gods who are against necromancy or don't want their followers coming back.

Plus its taboo nature means it likely is both hard to learn and hard to find anyone willing to teach, and anyone seen casting a taboo spell may either face the law or justice by a holy order on a roadside, this is just a general fantasy take tho.
