I also had a question about TFA’s crawl, but I’ll post that on it’s respective thread.

I noticed only recently you changed the crawl from “Leia has sent her most daring pilot on a secret mission” to “Leia has sent her most trusted pilot on a daring mission”, was this change done before TLJ came out? Because to me Poe’s arc in TLJ could be boiled down as going from “daring” to “trusted”. And with how little characterization Poe had in TFA, I’m sure the way he’s introduced in TFA’s crawl as a “daring pilot” was used to inform his character going into VIII, so it seems weird to change that. Now you go into TLJ and suddenly Leia’s most “trusted” pilot is disregarding her direct orders, getting himself demoted, and having to be “stunned down” after staging a mutiny.
