Would they be expected to kill themselves for the greater good or did I miss something? They can still die of natural causes, such as cancer or a heart attack, they don't need to be killed in battle to transfer the power. As Lord Jaric said, they don't need to spend their lives fighting, they can live normal lives if they're allowed to. If they're allowed to that is, though a lot of the time they're not given that choice, thanks to Ozpin and Salem. They're seen as tools and possessions rather than people, and that's sad.
