Blood rage and righteous flame issue

When u use blood rage, my hp goes to zero and die, unlike righteous flame (which stops at 1 hp)

I wonder why BE and RF are different in this way, please give me an explanation for this GGG

Righteous Fire: "The effect ends when you have 1 life remaining."

Blood Rage: - says nothing about stopping.

Or you mean WHY choose it that way?

Blood rage gives you leech, so you should be leeching while you have it.

Righteous fire is almost always used with huge regen so the 1 life thing doesnt matter, but I imagine the flavor reason is that you burn yourself to near death in order to hurt enemies, and you have a chance to live but if you are taking any damage, you die.

Your hp goes to zero when I use BR? That's strange.

Anyway, I've never had BR kill me (directly), because it does less damage than RF and usually stops before HP reaches zero anyway, because its duration runs out.

Now, if you use BR and a skill that can't leech (like any spell), that's a different matter, because BR's duration will be refreshed with every kill. In that case you'd need to either drink life flasks or get some more life regeneration.

Maybe fluff reason:
"Righteous" fire is 'White Magic' and nicely stops at 1.
"Blood Rage" is 'Black Magic' and (un)nicely kills you.

Blood Rage does have one thing over Righteous Fire: you can turn it off without the use of a flask. Admittedly that was not always the case as formerly you could turn off RF in the same manner (gem removal/weapon swap).

I would personally trade the burning stops at 1 life if I could turn off RF with a weapon swap.
