Just because Dragon dredged him from the bottom of the ocean doesn't instantly mean he's alive. The other characters have even acknowledged him as dead. You'd reject what has been actually stated in the manga for what was merely suggested? I'll agree if you admit Sabo has as much a chance of joining as Tom, Bell-mere, or Kuina.
