I didn't say kill him because everyone would see a different actor in the movie, that would be a sell-out move. But she could Honor the man she worked with. Note the difference.

Perhaps it would have honored Richard Harris in some way -- can't say I see it, but I won't argue the point.
But do remember that she had the plot of all 7 books sketched out in a fair amount of detail before she wrote Harry 1 (as the publishers call it). I imagine that it would difficult if not impossible, and probably dangerous, to rework the overall plot now, since Harry 1-4 are all predicated on and contain foreshadowing of her original plot.

Also, I think it is quite interesting the way she wrote Sirius' death, because I couldn't believe he was dead. How brilliant is that? Life really is that fragile, death can come that easily, it doesn't have to be some amazing battle of the wits where one of them dies in a huge explosion...I bet each of us felt "Sirius can't be dead" She wrote our emotional reaction into the story!
