"Inflating the 'climate-related' death toll"
There will be no need to inflate it. There will be a need for those like you to pretend that it's not happening. Why don't you start counting deaths now, until we do get to zero emissions, so we can find out how many more died cuz we didn't stop it from changing today ? Starvation from weather related crop failures, temperature related deaths, storm related deaths, wildfires, and maybe trans-national climate migrants killed during their migrations. What would be a good baseline? How about 1992-2022?
