Most COVID deaths are due to suppressed immune systems due to preexisting conditions. However, if they hadn't been infected with COVID, their failed immune system wouldn't have dealt with COVID and lost the battle.

False - two times over.
1. By your reasoning any number of illnesses could have done that, nothing specific to Covid. Nothing new in the history of illness. We just haven't shut down our economy for pneumonia or flu that could sicken the vulnerable before. In the past, we protected and treated the vulnerable and let the healthy go to work and live their lives.
2. Many of these people were denied all treatments. Normally we treat sick people but this time, they were denied all treatment and allowed to become seriously ill and die without appropriate medicinal attention. Our live spans and history of illness would all be different if we used Covid protocols (i.e., go home and die without treatment, or be hospitalized and actively killed with intubation, isolation, immobilization, Remdesivir and Midazolam).
