If you know that there is only two fates. Death or survival then sometimes it's time to look for the third option.

... I don't get it. Unless Celestia is murdering them through that wound somehow. But I don't get why she would.

Blatant explanation time:
Damocles Sword is an old short story that comes in different shapes and sizes. The moral is simple. 'Realizing that a life of power, wealth, luxury is filled with anxiety, terror, and possible death.' - Google
The wound in the hoof is given by Celestia to her prized students (the ones who got brought into a life of power, wealth, so on.) as revealed at the end of the story.
Finally: Let me allow Celestia to roast ponies alive, it is a fan fic after all. The possibility of death comes from her own teacher.
I think I answered everything here.
