I beg to differ on that aspect. For example, a terrorist suicide-bomber accepts their fate and death, but is a death wholly lacking in honor.

I think you're confusing the concept with Dignity. People can elect to go out with composure and dignity instead of crying and having to be dragged or otherwise their death thrust upon them. Not the same as honor. I can write plenty of scenes where a villain can be accepting of their impending death without it being "died with honor".

Perhaps the proper phrase should be "Acceptance of Fate".
