  1. And now you know why there's a Culture ship named Death and Gravity.

I always assumed that "Gravity" was replacing the "Taxes" part of "nothing is inevitable except Death and Taxes", because the Culture had clearly dispensed with taxes.

Possible, but the Culture is also no longer subject to mandatory gravity (drones float), or mandatory biological death.
