I agree that it wouldn't have changed the story for Harry. Not only would Harry not have seen any other death as different, but he still would have blamed himself. Whether Sirius died on-screen, off-screen, in battle, defending something, etc, Harry would have blamed himself for it and been really hurt by it.
