Only creatures use the "dies" terminology.
only people who haven't read the comprules would say that. nowhere in the CR prohibits other permanents to die.
That's a bit of a rude comment given Link's long history on this site of creating clever and rules-compliant cards. Especially because, while your second sentence is technically correct, it's misleading: Wizards deliberately avoid using "dies" on cards that are likely to trigger off noncreature permanents going to the graveyard (even Boggart Shenanigans because of the block it was printed in). See http://www.wizards.com/magic/magazine/article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/feature/244f&page=2 :
> Although there is no functional difference between "dies" and the longer phrase (in fact, one is the definition of the other), we intended to use "dies" only when we were talking about creatures. It's just better flavor if your artifacts and enchantments aren't dying.
It's not a "comprules" thing, it's a design rule.
