I am an individual not a country! There is a vast difference between expecting an individual to have insight and expecting a government to change complex legislation. Of course we want more common sense in health and safety but the two situations have little in common.
I regret your explanation for leaving the casualty overnight because it was dark and he was on the edge of a drop is rather an own goal. That means there was never any suggestion of evacuation that evening and the claim that six rescuers were needed cannot be sustained

The patient didn't die. In fact looking at the evidence available to us there is no evidence he was going to die or even that anyone thought he might die. We simply don't know what the doctor said, nor how he might have gained the evidence to make any assertion. But my concern is that the other pilot could have legally flown in the rescuers guided by this chap avoiding risk to the rescuers and illegality
