I love the subtle messaging in this episode. Filoni really shows respect to the fans by not spoon feeding everything to them - leaving it open to interpretation.
“Live or die”
I see this as a sort of call to defiance against the absurd , ala Albert Camus.
Live life to the fullest regardless of the tragedies, the apparent meaninglessness, the darkness and cyclical nature of life.
Live in defiance.
Choose life no matter what.
Live, or die…
