The take home message of Rogue One isn't that everyone dies, it is that they sacrificed themselves for a greater cause. They knew going in this mission was next to impossible but they still went and accomplished it at all costs.
They shouldn't be bummed by the lead dying but inspired by her selflessness. I think Disney did a good job of making these people out to be real heroes, even the Rebel Troopers dying at the end. He knew he was dead when the door jammed but he still got the plans through the crack because he knew it was above him. That is the feel good message of this movie and I found it inspiring.
