You are right of course. And you should note, that the opposite is
unfalsifiable also. But the scientific method is unapplicable here
because we will never know for sure anyway.

Yes, that is true also. But I didn't argue that there is substantial
evidence that it was the cause. I just saying that in my "opinion"
they bear the "moral" responsibility for his death. Nobody is going to
push charges against them in court on these grounds.

I agree with that part.

I strongly disagree here. They abused their authority and broke public
trust which might resulted in loss of life. Are you trying to say that
nobody should be held responsible for the consequences of their
actions? And they were advised that it could cause harm to his health,
but chose not to act responsibly. If that's not enough for you, that's
enough for me.

You are right and it's off-topic. But I didn't started it and if you
chose to publicly argue with what I said before then I have the right
to respond to your criticism, don't I? Or is it a one way avenue?
