Is that surprising though? I feel like it’s possible to think about these movies too much. It’s not a WW2 timepiece that you want to be historically accurate.

It’s a movie about aliens, space, and a magic called the force. You need to suspend belief to allow the movie to be entertaining.

As the Inglewood jack said the battles in Star Wars have always been messy in regards to canon and how ships can get destroyed and what damage it can do. Hell for some reason At-At walkers are immune to blaster fire but ships aren’t made with the same steel.

All I meant was for me personally a pretty large ship being able to light speed itself into another larger ship to destroy it didn’t set off a ton of “logic does not compute” alarms. Especially since it was an unplanned, last ditch, suicide effort that was her last resort to save the rebels. I probably would have had more issues with it if they tried to explain it or if it was strategically planned in advance (Still would have looked super cool though.)
