Zavala was mortal as well…

Yes, and by that rationale, so was Cayde. But we didn't have any story beats where Zavala (or Cayde) pondered his mortality and voiced his reservations. Or rallied in spite of that to fight. So.

It's relevant for Ikora for that brief span in the story, because that was part of her character development. For Amanda and Hawthorne, the idea of only having one life and yet engaging in the conflict carries that weight. We have other mortals like our sniper buddy Captain Teatime; but he doesn't get major plot or cinematic time, so it's less relevant for his character. If he died, it wouldn't hold a fraction of the same impact.
