They pulverize the fragments to dust as shards of bone a few inches long might be a bit disconcerting when "scattering the ashes". Mostly parts of the highly dense bone ends are what survives burning, where bones are super thick and dense, generally where two bones meet in a process. Those don't come out intact, it's more like the surface of the ball of the hip joint survives as some large flakes that resemble sea shells.
Roughly 80% of the "Dry" mass of the bones burns away in cremation, much more if you measure by wet mass when the bones contain marrow, fat, blood and fluids.
If you had a pile of dry bones, you could quite easily use them as fuel in a campfire, they will burn at such temperatures. So the knobby ends will resist burning, and thus not the best method to "dispose" of a body, but quite sufficient to remove most of the structure of the skeleton.
Especially true since per RAW they don't regenerate fire damage.
A Skeleton reduced to a couple pounds of fire resistant chips, from which it cannot regenerate, is effectively dead.
