What does it mean that Yaacov expired?

Why do you ignore the meforshim I brought who say ויגוע means a deep sleep?

A little further in the parsha it says that the brothers of Yosef saw that their father DIED with the loshen “mes”.

But Rashi said that מיתה לא נאמרה בו – it doesn’t use the term “death” regarding Yaakov!

Why do you ignore the Ramban I brought on that possuk who explained that the possuk is not saying that Yaakov died, rather that his sons SAW him as dead, as Rashi wrote נדמה להם שהוא מת?
