I don't mind it simply because it allows for a quick motivation to be set up. The story is about an overprotective dad, and that dad is a lot more sympathetic with the backstory he's given. Yeah, they COULD have done something more unique or worked the death out in a more unique way, but that'd be taking time away from the actual story. It's a cliche, btu I don't think all cliches are bad. This is one that I think is almost necessary to be used for certain kinds of stories.

I think the trope is most problematic in that it's often the only way a female character is even present in a work.

Oh IA with the thing about female characters

if the characters who died are the only female characters there, that's kind of a major problem. Or if it's only them and a love interest. :/
