the throne room scene aboard General Grevious’ flagship at the start of ROTS could have the same argument made for it . Just an observation.

To an extend yes, but the circumstances surrounding Grievous’ flagship are very different, as is the characters’ motivations for being there. TLJ uses the same basic setup of ROTJ, where the hero lets himself/herself be captured by the villain in the hope, that she will be able to turn the villain to the good side, whilst a rebellion is in dire straits, a fact used by the villain’s master to taunt the hero.
