If a first officer assassinates a captain for weakness, you'd say HoD HoH yaS wa'DIch the first officer kills the captain, not HoD HeghmoH yaS wa'DIch the first officer is fatal to the captain, even though the sentence is perfectly grammatical. Again, this is just my opinion.

If I heard someone say HoD HeghmoH yaS wa'DIch, I'd assume the first officer didn't intend to kill the captain.

Or maybe that he didn't kill the captain directly.

QuSpu' cheng Sa', 'ej Qang HeghmoH. General Chang conspired and caused the chancellor to die.
