Again, I guess that comes from your perspective about who these films are about. If you look at them as 6 film overlaps with the PT and OT being about Anakin Skywalker and the OT and ST being about Luke Skywalker, then I see where you are coming from. If you look at the trilogies as being about each generation (PT-Anakin/Obi Wan, OT-Luke/Leia, ST-Rey/Kylo), then I lean more towards the film being about Rey (and Kylo).

Even if Rey vs. Kylo is the “end” of her story in TFA, that doesn’t mean it should be the last we see of her.

In ANH the “end” of Luke’s story is when he uses the Force to destroy the Death Star. But we still see him later at the end in new fangled clothes receiving a medal as an official member of the Rebellion.

In TPM the “end” of Anakin’s story is who even fucking knows, either when he destroys the droid control ship or when Obi-Wan tells him he’s going to be trained? Anyway we see him later at the parade in full Padawan mode.
