Hmm, it’s an interesting idea, but might be clumsy. We would’ve griped about this if the movie did this.
Which idea? The quick word replacement of “people” with “stormtroopers” in Finn’s sentence or the more in-your-face ideas?
Also, about Kylo Ren and the whole hidden power thing. I believe he knows about the fleet but is aware that he needs to kill whoever is in charge in order to steal it for himself.
