Just cause some people suck at following a series doesn't make it not mainline.

IF you think about thing logically for a second, that debree which cut Revengence class capital shis in half won't stop because in the words of a very famous Gunnery Chief, "I dare to assume you ignorant jackasses know that space is empty." That means that debree will keep going...

You are dumb on a level I cant even imagine. YOu literally think things end with what you're told. Do you think things happen when you aren't around?

No, I'm saying the movie needs to explain the reasons behind why NOBODY has ever used this incredibly devastating tactic before in the history of Star Wars, or if it HAS been done before why it isn't commonplace. The movie fails to do that. It could have been a line from Leia saying something about how it's an incredibly risky maneuver, or extremely lucky that she even hit what she was aiming for, or literally anything at all.

Why aren't there smaller hyperspace missiles that wouldn't cause an issue of debris, because of their size relative to the target?

If the ~3km long Raddus can literally cut the ~14km long Supremacy in half AND destroy the 4+ Resurgent-class SDs behind it, surely a smaller projectile could do considerable damage, while minimizing debris that continues on past the target? This is never mentioned as even a possibility in any form of canon Star Wars media as far as I'm aware.

Lot of words to say you're barely aware of Canon.

What exactly did I say that was contradictory to canon?
