It would imply that if we didn't use it in other contexts like "killed in a landslide" which doesn't really fit the conventional idea of a killer.

The killer is named, there's no requirement that the killer is living. Died is used to convey that the notable part is that he is dead, not that someone/something killed him.

Plus we already have the word "murder" for that

Osama was killed by people, it wasn't murder as it was legal. Manslaughter is another example of when killed is used to convey that there was not an intentional killing.

I wonder if the pilot yelled Kobe!

Probably just yelled "Yeet!"
