This is all pretty much fact. The only thing to add is that, even with the special sword, you still need to decapitate them, whereas with direct sunlight, they just combust. But any other form of decapitation is ineffective, and they will either regenerate, or rejoin with, their body that way.

I'm kind of curious what happens to the headless body if they regenerate completely from the head before reaching it. The headless body *can* die from more traditional causes, as we saw when one fell off a cliff and the owner confirmed it having died, but, if it doesn't, could they technically create a small army of remote-controlled headless bodies by repeatedly cutting off their own head? Or does the body slowly disintegrate once a new body has been grown?
