Well, for one thing, the whole dynamic of the relationship between Boromir, Faromir, and Denothir would be lost if Boromir hadn't died. Also, it showed the need for sacrifice.

Yeah, poor Boromir. Maybe Tolkien didn't know what to do with him after he fell to the Ring's temptation, but wanted to give him a chance to redeem himself, so he had Boromir die defending the Hobbits.

Boromir was weak, and he gave into the darker part of his human nature out of fear. He was not evil, he truly thought that sending the One Ring into Mordor was foolish if it could be used to defend his city. But he was tempted and gave into that temptation, and he suffered the consequences by allowing himself to be surrounded and outnumbered by the enemy.

Um, cause Tolkien wrote the book that way? He was the author, so he could pretty much do what he wanted to the story.

It's a device the author uses to help Faramir complete his inner quest and conflicts with their father.

Because J.R.R. Tolkien said so.
