Can the Feign Death spell remove attunement from a cursed item?

Question

When a creature dies, their attunement to any magic items (including cursed items) ends.

Will the feign death spell (PHB, p. 240) trick the curse into ending early?

You touch a willing creature and put it into a cataleptic state that is indistinguishable from death. [...]

It is the same spell level as remove curse (PHB, p. 271), so it's not an abuse of power.

The description of cursed magic items says (DMG, p. 193; emphasis added by me):

Attunement to a cursed item can't be ended voluntarily unless the curse is broken first, such as with the remove curse spell.

The phrasing seems to imply that there are other methods. Does feign death qualify as a way to end attunement to a cursed magic item?

This came up because a character with a cursed item was put under the effects of a feign death spell, and we're wondering if the cursed item is still attuned.

Answer 1

The spell description goes on to define precisely what "indistinguishable from death" means:

the target appears dead to all outward inspection and to spells used to determine the target’s status.

Since the cursed item is not "outwardly inspecting", nor is it "a spell used to determine the target's status", feign death has no effect on the curse.
