Because Artoria fought and was deleted for her ideals against Eos. Unless you mean to say that Artoria could've copied Eos's deletion power and hit her back with it? I kinda wondered why Artoria couldn't have done something like that, but I don't know the full extent of her power, though I'm quite certain it would've been a whole different shitstorm if Artoria actually could've matched Eos's at her full power.

Artoria died because Gecko wanted her to die; not because she dared to go against Eos. Let's get that straight. If Gecko wanted Artoria to live, something would have been managed out to explain the proceeding events.
