I have to disagree.
Carlo set up Sonny to be assasinated, and Fredo betrayed the family, and set Michael up for a possible hit. To show strength, the family had to take proper revenge. Business.
Ciccio killed Vito's Mother and would have killed Vito if he knew he had lived. Business.
Pentangeli killed himself. That was so he could keep his honor and preserve his family. Business.
