It's cultural. If Lexa let him off for this, she'd be expected to let everyone off for infractions. Nobody would respect her as a leader, her leadership would disintegrate right in front of her.

That said, I do think it's a shame he got killed off. Based on what we've seen of him, I doubt Lexa will find anyone in her tribe more loyal than he was. He was just misguided in this instance.
