LordPlagueis, thanks for clarifying. If one moved the two Snoke/Hux scenes back to back it would have to imply a timejump since there’s a change of location.

But it is only a minor change in location: They are still on the same ship.

The ‘Luke mourns Han’ scene was reinserted where the deleted scenes reel has it, and with the footage available I’m not sure how one could go from “Where’s Han” immediately into him crying. Rey is in the room at first, then suddenly not, and Luke processes things rather suddenly.

As soon as Luke learns of Han’s untimely death, he would force Rey out of his hut for a moment alone to process his emotions. That would be apparent from the shot of Luke closing the door next to the shot of Rey’s eyes peering into the door slot.

I think as things stand Luke putting up a front and retreating allows him to cry in private about what’s built up, and cutting directly to Leia implies Han is at the center of it for both of them.

But he would be too emotionally overcome to put on a front.
