Wesen seem to keep track of their history and genealogy more thoroughly than we do, so something that's ancient history to us could feel like recent family history to them. Also, since Woge is an adrenaline reaction, seeing a dead Wesen's face stuck in an expression of terror or anger or pain -- whatever it is, it's not peace -- has got to be deeply, instinctively disturbing. They can't just close the dead person's eyes to make it look like sleep; burning the body must seem like the only way to let the dead move beyond the torture that froze that expression in place.
