So the scene I was mostly referencing was the hanger, when they start running for their lives and the blaster fire erupts. He just runs with them firing his blaster and does not take his lightsaber out. The scene before he was fighting the troopers in the hallway… with his lightsaber. So the writers have established he can still wield it, defend with it, and there is no longer a need for discretion because they have been discovered.
If the writers were going for the message you are describing, which I don’t disagree with, then they are failing on the delivery in my opinion.
