Not all lapses in judgment are created equal. Cutting someone off in traffic isn't the same magnitude of having made a poor decision as walking up to and punching someone. If I'm in a relationship and I check out a person of the opposite sex in front of my s/o, it's an entirely different order of one-minute-mistake than it is to have an accidental one-night stand after a night of drinking with my buds. In one case, it's entirely reasonable if the relationship has to end as a result. I'm not drawing direct-direct parallels to death here, but I am trying to point out certain lapses create much more significant consequences than others, even if they are equally accidental.
