Well, the 3 day limit was only in terms of revivification, not in being 
able to enter the Paths from Deathsgate. So, if you're longer than 3 
days dead, you can still enter the Paths if your body goes over the 
Falls, but you can't be revivified.

Another argument supporting the idea that going over Deathsgate is 
somewhat rare would be the mountain of bones that would be there if 
over 200,000 years you're dumping every body over the falls. However, 
remember in Dragon that they do ship bodies from the battle to 
Deathsgate for the trip, so common warriors of House Dragon are 
apparently going to make the trip.
