Thanks! And that is a good point. If we try to establish that more planets have been rising up against the First Order between TLJ and TROS, then it might help to place the Resistance on a more well-known planet, showing that they have gained more allies. Technically they would be hiding in forests of Naboo, rather than making their presence there known. And I also like the irony of the Resistance being on Palpatine’s homeworld. Also, the film implies that Luke trained Leia on Ajan Kloss at some point in the past, and I like the idea that we would be recontextualizing it to mean that Luke trained Leia on Naboo, instead. Padme wanted to raise them there, so I like the idea that Naboo may have been Luke and Leia’s home for awhile.

I just like the idea of it being a place we know rather than jungle base planet #3, you know? At the very least, it would be nice to give the planet some distinct feature.
