Lore wise, why are all the new Necron models so battered?

They can convert matter to energy and back again. They have effectively unlimited amounts of free time. They are almost universally described as being toweringly arrogant. Am I really supposed to believe a Necron lord is going to take a look at his own soldiers shuffling around like zombies, half their faces missing, and not go “Hey, canoptek slave constructs, fix this. I’m not going into battle with unpresentable minions”? Or that they wouldn’t care about visible damage to their own bodies enough to get it buffed out when they will spend literal decades on single plays?

Them looking like they do makes sense if they’re five minutes out of the tomb, but otherwise with as proud as the average Necron noble is it makes no sense that they’d tolerate any degree of visible degradation on their legions when fixing it is such a trivial matter.

What god do they think their weapons, armor, or battles are sacred to if they don’t hold the Emperor to be one?

Since it’s known that the C’tan can’t really be permanently destroyed, do the Necrons have some way to recapture their energy and force it back into a necrodermis shell before it can escape? Or does it just go back to being the star-eating energy being that it was before the meeting the Necrontyr, albeit a fraction of the size?
