Wow, just wow.
The lightsabers cauterise the wound. Try applying a hot iron to a massive gash. It heals it. Seeing as a lightsaber can melt foot-thick doors, it has enough oomph to seal a wound instantly after cutting.
As for the arm that Obi-Wan lops off in the cantina, that is a genuine mistake. Apparently it will be fixed in the DVD box set.
It's all pretty obvious.

i do believe in the concept about it sealing wounds but its the ponda baba mistake that shades the theory in doubt
