Counter-Arguments

The strongest case that this verse does not belong in this theme.

Sheol / The Grave

The verse describes the rich man's demise and disappearance ("he is not") but does not explicitly name Sheol, the grave, or any specific destination or state of the dead beyond simply ceasing to exist in his previous state.

Whole-Person Death

The verse describes the rich man's physical demise and disappearance ("he is not"), which could be interpreted as a reference to his earthly presence ending, without necessarily commenting on the state of his consciousness or existence beyond that.
