You know what we should take away from this? That the Dead Kings DLC is a huge spoiler, since it takes place post-revolution, and we already know Arno is the protagonist.

Ergo, we know he won't die in Unity, so any dramatic missions where he looks like he'd be greviously harmed or close to death, are irrelevant now.
