That’d be a fantastic improvement if you can manage it. I’ve always found it somewhat uncomfortable how our heroes are cold, unfeeling killers in TROS. Rey gets all choked up when she stabs Ben and decides to heal him, but she didn’t even flinch when she shot half his subordinates earlier.
At least in the OT, there’s nothing to contradict the idea that the Stormtroopers were voluntarily giving their lives to defend fascism, and thus they weren’t particularly sympathetic, but the ST makes it very clear that the First Order enslaves children and that quite a few of them would defect if given a chance.
