Interesting.  A few thoughts here.

Are you using this logic as a way to prevent the undead from getting an 
advantage that "overpowers" them, or is this how you really see it?

Isn't holy water blessed by a priest to become holy, and after it's been 
used no longer "holy" and just "water"?  In this case wouldn't water 
returned to the sea no longer be holy?
