Maybe they didn’t want Stovokor to mistakenly let the albino in or something. It would be interesting if that’s an actual consideration that Klingons need to be aware of, like “Quick! We need to roar for the fallen!” “Wait! This guy over here died like a cowardly petaQ!” “Shit, let’s drag his body away from the others! And hurry, or their souls will already be gone!” “How far do we need to drag it?” “Out of earshot!” “WHAT??” “I SAID OUT OF… FUCK IT THAT’S FAR ENOUGH”
Interesting point.
I get that they were tired/injured, but no longer in danger and no reason to ignore an important tradition.
