Padme dying during labor. In an advanced medical tech universe. And the lamest explanation for it "she's lost the will to live"...

Well that's not how girls work and it's quite a telling the script was written by a bloke.

Never thought of this, you're not wrong.

On the other side her dying because she lost the will to life... is kind of a good explanation for an unlikely death in such an advanced civilization.

Obviously they could simply keep her alive despite any actual medical condition. So what else could she die of... except for a spiritual (I don't know a better description) reason.

Kind of a "so bad it's actually good" explanation.
