I didn’t mean to imply that Holdo had only two options, merely that there were two obvious ones among many that could be taken.
And I wish Star Wars would go back to it’s more fantasy roots, where we could turn our brains off and just watch the spaceships fly around space like airplanes and shoot lasers at each other, but these questions about relative velocity and fuel calculations and the mechanics of hyperspace and cloaking are woven into the very fabric of The Last Jedi’s plot. The movie itself treats them as issues worthy of our attention, so how is it the EU’s fault that the movie is being held to its own standard?
