Got a question in here, where I don't give a name.

Here the question is asked as to who it is that the apostle Paul speaks of in regard to being loosed (verse 27.)
1 Cor. 7. 25 As for virgins, I have no command from the Lord, but I give advice based on the mercy of the Lord and my own credibility.
26 I therefore believe that because of the need of the present, it is for people's own good to be as they are.
27 Are you tied to a woman? Don't try to get loose from her. And if you are free in relation to women, then do not try to find yourself a woman.
28 But if anyone marries, he does not sin. And if a virgin gives in marriage, she has not sinned either. But they can get into trouble in the meat, which I want to spare them.
29 This I say, brethren, because the times are perilous. From now on, even those who have wives must act as if they had none.
30 Those who weep shall be like those who do not weep. Those who rejoice will be like those who do not rejoice, and those who can buy will be like those who have nothing.
31 Those who make use of this world should act as if they make no use of it. For this world, in its present form, shall pass away.
32 I want you to be without worries. For one who has not adopted can be concerned about the things of the Lord and about how to please the Lord.
33 But a married man worries about the things of the world and how to please his wife.
34 There is a difference between a woman and a virgin, because she who has not given in marriage worries about what is of the Lord so that she can be holy both in body and in spirit. But one who has given in marriage worries about the things of the world and how to please her husband.
35 I say this for your own good, not to lay a trap for you, but that you may live as befits one who wants to serve the Lord without hindrance.
36 But if someone thinks that he has acted unjustly against a virgin because she has passed her prime, and he feels guilty that it has become so, he should let her do as she wishes. She does not sin. Let her marry.
37 But she who stands firm in her heart and does not have a need, but has authority over her own will and who judges in her heart that she still wants to be a virgin, does well.
38 Therefore she who gives to the real does good. And she who does not give for real, also does good.
39 A woman is bound by the law while her husband lives. But if the man has fallen asleep, she is free to marry whoever she wants, as long as it happens as the Lord wants.
40 But blessed is she if she perseveres according to my advice, for I believe that I also have of God's spirit.

Answer:
As I understand the question and what was sent by, the interpretation here is in verse 26 in particular.
27 Are you tied to a woman? Don't try to get loose from her. And if you are free in relation to women, then do not try to find yourself a woman.
28 But if anyone marries, he does not sin. And if a virgin gives in marriage, she has not sinned either. But they can get into trouble in the meat, which I want to spare them.

The fact that this should be discussed as granting eligibility for remarriage sounds very far-fetched.

What the Apostle points out is for both the unmarried man and the virgin.
That a marriage will also be demanding in relation to the meat.
Do not talk about our desires etc. which are natural and God-given.
But simply, the challenges of supporting and being responsible for family and children.
Where one simply wants to inflict work and responsibility on oneself in addition to being a Jesus witness!

Can't see that this here deals with remarriage until the end of the chapter.
Where the Apostle gives the opportunity for the widow or widower to start a new marriage, if one wishes there. One is no longer bound.
It is only death that in reality gives rise to a new marriage for believers.

You further ask about the following:

Some claim that when 1 Cor 7 states divorce from one's wife, it is by divorce and not death.

It says, among other things, loosed 27 If you are bound to a woman, then do not seek to be loosed from her; if you are not bound to a woman, then do not seek a woman!

This is then nothing other than if you have a relationship with a woman.
I am married and bound. Someone who is single is "loose".
This is what the Apostle emphasizes as something positive.
Don't understand why this is actually being dragged in as a possibility for remarriage. It is also important to see God's word in the right way. E.g. Matthew is written to Jews. Then one must read Matthew with this as a background.

As I said, the scriptures are clear, it is only by death that one is "released" if one is married.

Room. 7. 1 You are not ignorant, brothers—and I speak to you who know the law—that the law has dominion over ahuman during his lifetime.
2 A woman who has a husband is bound to him, but if her husband dies, she is released from her husband's law.
3 If her husband is alive and she stays with another, she shall be called an adulteress. But if her husband dies, she is free from his law and is not an adulteress if she stays with another man.

Hope this gave you a better understanding.
There are always those who want to come up with straw arguments, obfuscation and the like!!
