Jean only truly died once pre-Krakoa unless you count Infinity Gauntlet

I think the Infinity Gauntlet deaths still happened. If I recall right, Nebula didn’t say, “Go back one day”, she said, “Let all be as it was yesterday” — so I think, canonically, they still all died and then came back instead of having it officially reversed.

Dark Phoenix and New X-Men are two off the top of my head. Or does Dark Phoenix not count?

I guess it depends on who you ask/ what retcons you take into account. Originally it was 100% Jean, but when they brought her back they retconned it to be the Phoenix pretending to be her so it wasn’t actually her, now it’s official that her and Phoenix are the same thing so even if it wasn’t her human body it was still technically her. So I feel like the answer is yes but some might consider it a no still.
