Except that TFA makes a big point of saying how Finn doesn’t know how to drive, and in ANH Han is skeptical that either Luke or Obi-wan could fly his spaceship. So maybe piloting is like flying a plane and takes some training, moreso than a car.
Well I can drive a car, but I cant drive a 18 wheeler truck or a Racecar or a Motorbike. Also I know plenty of adults who never learned to drive so that’s not unheard of. Analogies are never perfect but I think this one gets the idea across.
