Has anyone thought about a possible way to give the “Master Codebreaker” from TLJ a different introduction? If you think about it, his presence is really the only thing that changes because of the trip to Canto Bight. If he were somehow introduced earlier, like maybe if he were one of the people who tried to desert from the Resistance, then he and Finn and Rose could go straight from the Raddus to the Supremacy and save a lot of time.
Could possibly edit the code breaker conversation with Poe to adjust it. Confirm you need a code breaker, cut out contacting Maz and needing to find one, then cut to the conversation on the ship that can establish him as the code breaker.
