No, they died due to killing themselves. Romeo could have mourned and moved on with his life, and he would have found out Juliet was still alive when she came seeking him. Even if he decided to be a knob and off himself, Juliet could have mourned and moved on with her life, free from the insanity of both their families thanks to her fake death. Their suicides were decisions they didn't have to make, that weren't necessary to prevent a fate worse than death, therefore it was all bullshit. And that's fine, I think we were always supposed to slap our foreheads and go "idiots, all of them" at the end, but too many people sigh and go "how romantic, they're together forever", which is...stupid.

So much this. I always took it as a cautionary tale about how a) making assumptions about people before you actually know them and b) people should fucking talk to each other before jumping to conclusions.

They killed themselves because of a tragic/comic misunderstanding.

Also, Romeo had just killed Paris before entering Juliette's tomb, so there wasn't much of a life waiting for him if he didn't get out of Verona quickly enough.

Juliet could have mourned and moved on with her life, free from the insanity of both their families thanks to her fake death.

Young girl traveling on her own in premodern Italy, that's sure going to work out great!

Anyway, I think the audience's reaction was supposed to be "If only there wasn't that stupid family feud!"
