Well, y'know, maybe, much like Cana's first Fairy Glitter, she didn't die because she failed to master it(and that's why time went back for only 60 sec.) or Meredy can somehow transfer some of her life force to Ultear with a new form of Maguilty Sense... There are many ways to avoid a completely unnecessary death.
