This conclusion is particularly striking in wrongful death actions where the New York policy, embedded in a state constitutional provision against damage limitations, has without exception been applied in suits brought for New York decedents since Kilberg [v. Northeast Airlines, Inc., 9 N.Y.2d 34 , 211 N.Y.S.2d 133 , 172 N.E.2d 526 (1961)].”
