The second is it shows the dangers of ignoring those around you. I have a theory that clearing guy is from Terminus (maybe not). He seems to have no survival gear. He is also less than a day from Terminus. It makes me wonder if they had helped buddy, perhaps he would have filled them in on Terminus.

The one strategy they could have used to save the guy- he was in an open field. Why not run (spreading out)and once on both sides of the zombies start hollering. Give the zombies more than one target, and then they could take on the zombies a few at a time. Maybe create a new ally in the process?

Or was it a case not where they can't save everybody; but that they can't trust anybody else?
