Potentially upsetting death message

      I know this may not be a bug in the traditional sense in software development but I felt it warranted a ticket.

      The death message added in 1.13 for when a player dies in the void as a result of another player or mob:

      "player didn't want to live in the same world as player"

      is kinda dark and triggering for players who have some proximity to mental health issues and suicidal people. A few players on a server I help maintain saw it for the first time today and felt it was inappropriate for a game that is generally fun-spirited and welcomes children to play. 

      Alternate suggestions:

      "player was voided out by player/mob"

      "player got pushed into the void by player/mob"

       

      Thank you!
