True, but I think what Hamish meant was situations where just making a mistake, or failing to execute a required move during the normal course of gameplay results in a situation where suicide is required (even when it's impossible). Halo has relatively few of those-- the AotCR ones you mention require actions Bungie did not anticipate, like Banshee stealing, and they break all sorts of things in the campaign play.
