I mean, it is a Bethesda game. You haven't been able to really do that since Morrowind.
It's one major difference between Fallout 3 and New Vegas as well. The latter only has one unkillable main quest character (Yes Man) in the entire game, and that's because he's designed to be the catch-all fallback option if you fuck up every other questline.
Skyrim fallout4 you maybe had 10 npcs which are immortal, in Starfield its almost every named npc.
I can't compare to Starfield, having not played it, but Skyrim has a whole pile of NPCs who are immortal for some or all of the game. And for FO4, while it is a bit better than Skyrim, someone went and made a mod to remove essential status
But that says "Marked as unessential (if applicable)", havent played skyrim in a while but usually only the Jarls, Guildquestlines and Mainstory npcs were immortal and some could even lose that status once they werent relevant anymore. You still had like 60% named npcs like merchants you could just kill. In Starfield the most basic unimportant merchant in the corner of the map is immortal.
Starfield makes it a lot worse to the point where you have a guy telling you he wants to kill you but if you shoot him he is esential.
