Reducing your death count

After reading a number of posts about deaths during cutscenes (Vizunah in particular) I thought it might be a good idea to have a 'reward' at the end of Factions where your characters death count is reduced by one.

For those of you who have finished Factions you will know that this would make perfect sense storywise and it would serve as a nice incentive for any failed survivors to attempt to get through Factions, without incurring further deaths, to regain their survivor track status.

You don't get a death count from the VS cutscene, so you shouldn't get a -death from IS cutscene, simple.

How about simply NOT bringing a minion master to Vizunah if you're going for Survivor?
