I would write that you are incorrigible, but you would reply that you have never in your life visited corrigible.

Actually, he is quite easily incorraged. He’s both hoarse and corraged. It’s hard to discorrage him, even with coaching.

They believe he died either by hitting his head on a rock when he passed out or because his aggressor attacked him again with a blow to the head. How do we know that Oetzi wasn't the aggressor, and the arrow and the blow to the head were from someone successfully defending himself from Oetzi's predations? I think Oetzi had it coming.

Ok, so we have a guy who got shot with an arrow fatally and then either fell and bumped his head real bad or was bashed over the head by an enemy caveman.
Are we paying for this research???? Can we try and find out why 2300 children a year are going blind because Africa can't figure out how to grow carrots? Cancer? Heart Disease? Cerebral Palsy?

Leather soles. Slipped on the ice? Then shot himself in the collar bone with an arrow. Clumsy chap.
His heirs will take comfort in knowing that John Edwards will now sue the entity responsible for the maintenance of the path and its successors.

Good points, but it might not have been solo combat, two groups might have met, one opponent shot him with an arrow, another bashed in his head. They were too busy with his comrades to worry about looting his corpse at the time (and may not have survived the encounter.)
The arrow could have been broken off and lost in any number of ways.

Death by head trauma. Incipient ROP at play?

Arrows don’t kill people, arrow shooters do. Quit blaming the weapon, someone will want to ban them.
To: blam
Does this mean we should have banned arrows and clubs?
