Nobody inhales water when they suffocate in snow.

So if instead of having a "death mask" form, they have snow packed in
their throat shutting off their lungs it doesn't count as suffocating?

Of course that's denotative suffocation. The triple point of water is
O degrees Celsius. Water exists as liquid, solid, and vapor at that
temperature, eh?

Actually, 0.01°C, but you would have to be skiing at a pretty high altitude,
since the triple-point pressure is 0.006 atmospheres.

Drowning denotes inhalation of liquid water, does it
not? There is hardly enough H2O in that amount of snow to qualify as
drowning. It is rightly denotatively suffocation.

So you're going to argue that Water is a liquid, a solid, or a vapor?
Water and Ice are synonymmous? Not to mention Gas? Go ahead and
stretch it til it fits, albiet, stretched that tight the rationalization
will quickly disintegrate under cursory examination.
