If Bitcoin dies, probably the altcoins would also die because they need each other to be alive. But if Bitcoin died but the altcoins still alive, then I will probably move to another coin as its name "alternative coin". And I wouldn't cry like a kid or break my computer or do any other stupid things, but I would consider it a lesson for me in order to become a better person.
well you said it right if one dies like in pyramid all dies no alternatives and no other options
for other things you mentioned it is more metaphor then something else but like the last content we all then be better persons
