BTW, Pasaana as a desert planet feels really stupid on reflection, since the plot dictates a large, crowded celebration in the middle of nowhere. It would have made a lot more sense to combine Pasaana and Kijimi, since there would be visible cities on the planet and now we would have met some actual civilians before it got blown up and there would have been some interesting twists in evading the First Order while seeking out the droid mechanic and getting the Falcon back.

I wonder if that’s at all feasible, just to make Kijimi a different city in a different latitude of the same planet. The planet could be called Pasaana and the new Star Destroyers would use their not-quite-Death Star laser to destroy the city of Kijimi, implying that they can just destroy the capital cities of each world without the needless Death Star overkill.
