Its funny you say this because I've ranted against Star Destroyers and Imperial Technology and design for a while now.

For instance, in Kenobi they were being chased by a Star Destroyer, a vessel literally bristling with weaponry and they were firing....one laser.

What? Is there a quota? Do you pay by the blast or something? You want to destroy that ship right? Fire everything!!
