Joshua + Ten Spies = ?

I wonder if you had realised the following two highlights when you read Numbers 13-14?
1. Caleb said something when the ten spies gave a bad report of their mission (13:30) and God declared that Caleb had a different spirit (14:24). Comparatively, Joshua said nothing so God also said nothing about him. (Well, God did say that both Caleb and Joshua were exceptions!)
2. The ten spies died immediately of a plague because they had incited rebellion against God by spreading the bad reports (14:36-37)!
