Here she's just hyper-competent (gets the Stormtrooper in one shot instead of a volley, Luke didn't get even one) and Luke is a sissy boy and she doesn't even kiss him. The Mouse doesn't make these changes by accident. What can we ascertain from these changes?
1. Women are never flawed people.
2. Men cannot have power over their own actions.
3. Men must not want women to like them.
4. Women should do nothing to get men to like them.
It's not even SJW. It's not even illiberalism. It's corporate thought control. Points 3 and 4 attack the social drives of both genders, encasing the public in emptiness and bitterness toward the other. Point 2 instills a sense of fatalism in men, turning them to obedience. Point 1 convinces women that they are entitled to act on the first immediate impulse that they feel at that moment, regardless of who it may hurt or what the consequences are.
The result? The PERFECT consumer base. Women who buy anything the ads convince them they need, and men who accept that they don't have a say in the matter.
