It makes a lot of sense. I don't like violence on film myself. I can deal with seeing the aftermath of violence, but not the actions themselves.
The ancient Greeks forbade any bloodshed in their tragedies to take place onstage. All offstage, with sound effects, and then a messenger would come in and tell you what happened or they'd open the doors on the stage and show you the scene.
