That whole scene was unnecessary.
The character of Saw was also transparently an attempt to add moral ambiguity to the film, a redundancy. They couldn't put a torturer in the Alliance so they made him a Rebel apart from the Rebels. The part where they for some reason needed to take the message to him rather than just the Rebels proper was weird. It would have made more sense for them to intercept the transport pilot, kidnap him and interrogate him themselves.Â
A general issue that's somewhat understandable. We're in a era where the line between 'rebels' and 'terrorists' are somewhat blurred. Especially since irl, the 'good guys' are often the ones with the overpowering army, and the 'bad guys' are the underdog. Â
Also note, this is Disney. They expect children to watch this show, although parts were graphic, it was always somewhat clear who the bad guys were and who the good guys were. I think they cut-out the hammerhead blowing up with the Star Destroyers to avoid the whole suicide ramming trigger. We also probably wouldn't see the A-wing crashing into the Super Star Destroyer bridge in this era.
