If I cut along those time stamps there’d still be a reference to lightspeed skipping but not as heavy of a focus. Might work.
Krausfadr posted a clip of how he edited the scene a while back:

Yes, that’s it! Thank you. 😃
I almost feel like too much of the scene is missing now. I wonder if there’s a middle ground.
Of course the other option would be to cut out the earlier Poe and Finn sequence completely (it’s already trimmed pretty heavily with the chess scene moved and lightspeed skipping removed). Then you can keep the lightspeed skipping reference and just leave it up to imagination what exactly that means. The only remaining issue would be when Boolio’s head is on the table, we wouldn’t know who that is.
