“One big difference between wanting to die and wanting Moshiach to come is that the latter is a Mitzvah while the former is an Aveirah.”

I dont think wanting to naturally die and go to olam haba is an aveira. There is a story in the talmud about a tzadik wanting to die so he could go to olam haba.

But you are not answering my question. In fact, if the only difference is that (according to you) one is an aveira and one is a mitzvah. This does not provide a logical answer to my question.
