You just nicely summed up the reasons, why I would enjoy it more.

In real life, human sacrifices and selflessness don't always bare fruit. Sometimes it's pointless & that's the beauty, making it almost as tragic as real life. (last time in a newspaper a guy ran safely out of his burning house, but noticed his cat wasn't with him, so he went back to save his cat, he died. Later they found out the cat was already outside... talk about pointless heroic action.)

Someones death doesn't always need to bring something up in another personality, that's just animelogic. & i'm liking this manga, because it's a bit different from the cliché-anime logics.

Kijima, Ui, Mutsuki (pretty deadlike without limbs), already forgotten... All the smallfry ccg officers that get rekt daily...

well if there's one guy who should excuse himself, it's Ishida for not keeping it dark enough. ^^ Only people who can influence the progression, can make excuses. God Arima was not such a badass after all.

He recks Shachi in a few panels, which was so anticlimactic or really astonishing for me. I'd expected Shachi to be a tougher opponent. But not long after He shoots lightning at Ayato, who wasn't even aware of Arima's presence & dodges it for some mystical reason. I can understand him dodging it when being in front of Arima and being able to guess Arima's next attack, but not when the attack is already closing in on you and certainly not lightning xD I don't think he's that fast yet. It's so contradicting the way he showed Arima to be. There's never a way to scale his power, one time he looks OP & the other like a just above average fighter...

why not take the middle way & wound Ayato. Then Ayato still has the wow-factor of partially dodging Arima's attack, pretty impressive & arima still counts as powerhouse. Fair & Square & compromising both.

You see like that some people can also get frustrated. It's not only characterwise we get frustration, but based on the overall tendency of realness and consistency. Here he showed people like me sadly enough, that also Ishida sometimes conveniently uses plot armor for certain characters. My principle is equality, so every character should be evenly vulnerable to death. Until now, I never really noticed his favorism or questionable actions that are convenient for certain characters.

Just because I perceived that lightning missed shot as plot armor, ''I can say with 100% certainty that Ayato will not die in this encounter with Arima. I'm willing to bet on that. (That means this encounter ends when he's backed up or relieved by a friend or other character or distracting event)''

As stupid that Ayato dying sounds to you, just as convenient looked it to me when he was kept alive here.

Same difference.
