You actually make several really good points. When I think about it, Regenerate is a mechanic that's off-flavor and too complicated. Thornling's Indestructibility is a cleaner solution; the only problem is that it prevents all destruction for the rest of the turn, rather than only one instance. Certainly Reassembling Skeleton feels much more like a truly regenerating creature. In my opinion, if they wanted to properly execute a true regenerate mechanic, it would be something like this:
G: If this creature (permanent) dies (is destroyed) this turn, return it to the battlefield at the beginning of the next end step.
That way, cards like Incinerate or Wrath of God wouldn't be obsoleted or lose their flavor, new players would understand the more intuitive mechanic, and it would convey more of a sense of magical healing (as all other creatures that didn't die "heal" during the end step).

I love how trolls in mtg can regenerate (trolololol0 before it's time).
Oh and the constant re-prints of this card just emphasizes my point.
