Rex's Biggest Regret

So I've been thinking about this scene right here:

I always found it odd that Rex would mention Hevy in that list despite only knowing him for such a short amount of time. Especially when you think of Hardcase who we know has fought beside him for a long time or Tup who died right before Fives. That is until I remembered what happened in the episode Rookies when Rex goes:

And later in the episode we see this:

And then it shows Rex leaving first because "I'm always first."

And we all know how that episode ends.

Now move ahead to Plan of Dissent and what do we see?

Rex is in the back. He probably blamed himself for Hevy's death and felt guilty for being the first one out not even realizing Hevy wasn't with them. He was the one to give Hevy the job to fix the remote. He never stopped to check if Hevy was behind them until it was to late. He mentions Hevy because he was probably Rex's biggest regret. He was a shiny who just saw real combat for the first time. Rex probably spent nights lying awake thinking of how Hevy's death could have been avoided. Of what he could have done different. It's something he probably never lets himself forget.

anakin: [glares at obi-wan] you have turned her against me!
