Also, Jinber Melon is just a rumor so far, it was never made a fact so far.

Personally, I would like it more if he were dead. Not because I dislike Takatora, hell no, it's quite the opposite, but because that would make the scene even more meaningful.

This. We really hadn't felt anything for Takatora until he was betrayed, and even then there hadn't been any mention of his relationship issues with Mitsuzane save for their passing conversations until they gave us this episode. The fact that it resonated so well because of how it was set up works for Gaim. Keeping his death as fact would be way more meaningful to the story.
