Why did Sirius have to die by going beyond the veil, if he needed to
die so that Harry could learn to support himself why didn't JK Rowling
have Bellatrix Avada Kederva (sic) him? Could it be a hint that their
is something important beyond the veil, from what I understand the two
way mirror is going to be important again, perhaps Sirius will find a
way to make a new connection to the mirror left behind and tell Harry
about some key to defeating Voldermort beyond the veil.
So this seems a bit rambling but I am just randomly throwing ideas out.

Jeremiah:
I think it has more to dowith the character of Ballatrix than anything else.
Is she the type of "Bad Guy" who would kill her own cousin knowing the is
the last male in the line? Or, is she really a killer? She is a torturer, as
we know, but killing someone is much greater in the HP world. She killed a
fox (out of protection and, IMO, fear) but she didn't AK Harry at the
ministry or Sirius at the veil.
But to get back to your origional question: I think having Sirius die from
an accident is much more tragic. it's one of those: "And... Opps! he's dead"
moments that come at you. If we had a "flash of green light" or read the
curse as bellatrix said it then it would have been way too simplistic. Plus,
that veil leaves us some gaping holes as far as what the nature of the
Department of Mysteries really is all about.
(Sorry to those who aren't into how a text functions. I was a Theatre major
and took a lot of directing classes. I'm all about text analysis from a
character's perspective). :)
