I believe that the statement is based on the idea that an onion with rotting parts isn't good to eat. In that way, the comparison isn't apt because people aren't finished until they are dead. Judging one in the middle of their life is like judging the onion before it's been picked. Not only that, but as you said, people can become unrotten after being rotten.
