It's a testament to the quality of the programming and testing that they show Mario on the screen only if he's still alive. It would be easier to just show him without conditions.

It's not a different screen in SMB1. After you hit the axe, Mario walks to the right and the screen scrolls until the castle is off screen, revealing Peach and the ending text. It's functionally just part of the level.

Also I'm pretty sure Morio falls under the screen when he dies, but still exists there and can be controlled under some circumstances.
