I think that people generally don't like seeing characters they have come to like die, particularly a player character like Six. Discretion shot aside, the character was certainly killed by his/her attackers. You've put another interesting example, as similar to Six ("Your body, your armor—all burned and turned to glass.") Ghost was shown to be killed and had his body burned to make it clear that they weren't getting out alive. People start to create their own theories of survival, some more implausible than others.
