    You are applying more real world morality than the reality we actually see on display. It is not a crime to kill someone when both belligerent are throwing down.
    It... fully is though? Like, if I get attacked in Whiterun by, I dunno, a vampire or something, then I dont get a bounty if I kill them, but the guards will absolutely come to my help and attack the vampire too, because the vampire committed a crime by trying to kill me. Acting to defend myself doesnt make it not a crime to have attacked me.
