First of all, there are some specific details in that episode that show why it makes sense that omar be taken out in such a meaningless way
When michael was ran up on by omar at the corner, kenard went from to to right there. This lil wild nikka was not impressed...or shook...at all. He didn't give a fukk about the legend of omar, he just saw an old 'gumpy' ass nikka...then, when omar rolled thru the alley in front of kenards peoples, they can off...kenard's lil sociopathic ass was fukkin pouring lighter fluid on a CAT, and didn't move a muscle. Instead, he caught him slippin and did omar in.
The main point though is the last scene in the episode. The body bag that omar was in wasn't even fukkin labeled right; the coroner happened to recognize it was wrong, but this dude who was a decade or so long legend, wasn't even relevant enough for people to tag his body bag right. And that's the key; as big as omar was to that world, in the words of marlo, "he's just another nikka with a gun". "Ghetto street murders" don't really amount to shyt and and you don't go out like scarface...you just get shot and you don't matter anymore.
Did bodie even get his name dropped in season five? Its crazy how that was a core point of the show but few picked up on it.
I know it would've been cooler if omar went out in a mexican 3 way standoff with chris and the bunk...but him just getting popped, and bagged is 1000x more realistic.
