Debatable. I consider myself a huge Star Wars fan and don’t give a crap about any of those characters dying.
We’re not talking about Agent Coulson, of MCU fame, type development here. His death meant something. I could describe him as a person beyond his role in the plot. Not something I can say for any of these one note background characters from SW.
Admiral Akbar and these other nobodies weren’t important and never had more than a line or two in the movies. Let alone being important enough to justify actual development time in the new trilogy. They’re lucky their existence was even acknowledged.
