I can think of situations where I'd like to be able to use a HP or two to say "OK, I defeat my opponent. And I die doing it." Despite not actually having enough AP to do this. Whether or not the PC's funeral is miserable isn't the point, it's the heroic ending that would be good to have as an option.
