Salaams SB,
you said"Hell is the consequence for both examples, unless, before they die or see death coming, repent "
I think most people most people may be just labeling themselves rather then practicing what the labels stand for , but is Allah going to look at the label or our actions in this world?
here is what i think worship is - you may agree
"You worship besides Allah only idols, and you only invent falsehood. Verily, those whom you worship besides Allah have no power to give you provision, so seek your provision from Allah (Alone), and worship Him (Alone), and be grateful to Him. To Him (Alone) you will be brought back. 2917
According to the Holy Quran there is a group of persons who have been and are given an equal status with God and have been the object of WORSHIP by people of different ages. Such persons are the religious leaders
They have taken their priests and their monks for their Lords besides God, and also the Masih son of Maryam; whereas they Were commanded not but to worship the One God no god is there but he. Hallowed be He from that which they associate' .931
The people of the Book were commanded to WORSHIP (obey Allah and His command only) but they took their priests and their monks as their Lord and obeyed them blindly.
For the people of the Book if the Divine laws did not forbid something, it was declared forbidden by their leader, they abided by this; similarly things their religious leaders declared permissible were also accepted. Therefore the words in the above verse means the acceptance of the priests' decisions, and considering them to be final and beyond reproach, instead of obeying the laws of God. The Jews and the Christians made this mistake because they did not consult the authority of their respective Divine books for a particular issue, and thus considered all that the priests said to be the will of God.
Worship of Pharaoh
They said" shall we believe in two men like ourselves, and their people to us are WORSHIPPERS. 2347
And We sent Moses with Our Clear (Signs) and an authority manifest To Fir'aun (Pharaoh) and his chiefs, but they followed the command of Fir'aun (Pharaoh), and the command of Fir'aun (Pharaoh) was no right guide. 1196/97
Thus did he make fools of his people and they obeyed him Truly were they a people rebellious (against Allah). 4354
People of Pharaoh did not WORSHIP him but obeyed and followed his command
Salaam.

Our actions and that is why although many label themselves as Muslims, their actions contradict the label. One can only be a Muslim if one serves, that is, takes for his/her guidance, Allah only and alone. We serve Allah by following His Book of Guidance--Al-Quran.

Yes, I agree with what you wrote.
