why it is not allowed to ask about people who die and leave no will

Who says it's not allowed? Asking the same question four times though won't get you more answers!

The majority of people who die don't leave a will. There's no reason why anyone should need to collate a list of such people.

When someone dies intestate, a family member should (theoretically) apply for a grant of 'letters of administration' to permit them to distribute the estate in accordance in accordance with the intestacy rules. Probate offices keep a record of such applications. So, theoretically, this would provide a list of people who died intestate. However, in many cases, no application is made. Reasons include:
(i) when a married person dies, their entire estate normally goes to their spouse (unless the estate is very large). Unless, say, a bank insists upon seeing the letters of administration, the spouse normally simply takes possession of the deceased person's assets ;
(ii) where the estate is small (e.g. just a few personal effects), the family might just agree among themselves how to distribute it ;
(iii) if the estate is insolvent (i.e. the person left nothing or left debts which were at least as big as their assets), there is no point in anyone seeking letters of administration.
