So she died while directing a Star trek episode?! RIP - at least she died doing what she loved.

English usage varies. That usage of ‘passed’ isn’t top of mind for me.

Regrets to have evoked death for anyone.

No bad intention on your side means there is nothing to regret my fellow trekkie

Well that’s another cultural difference right there.

I’m Canadian. Expressing regret and saying we’re sorry is a reflexive social necessity.

We even have federal and provincial legislation (Apology Acts) to prevent an express of regret from being used against us in court.

But it’s also true that ‘Sorry, not sorry’ is a thing.
