I like what it implies, as it matches pre-TROS understanding of Leia’s life story, but it may not match the expression on her face during the flashback. Like they’re sparring and her training is almost done and she’s suddenly like “omg I just sensed that I could probably do more in politics.”
To be fair, TROS:A as it stands doesn’t fare any better.
Ahhhh, Disney Star Wars and their lack of planning lol
