A small correction: So long as a person has not directly ordered you to save them, it is perfectly okay for a borg/AI to stare at them while they suffocate in space and not lift a finger to help them.
The cessation of an action is in itself, an action. However, willfully choosing to ignore someone in need is not an action.
In your example, a medic is ordering you to do something, so law 2 is in effect. It's a pretty bad example when the goal is to isolate the inaction clause.
