I have issues with Rey’s character. I dislike how she seems to be so strong and capable right out the gate. In ANH, Luke comes across as kind of an idiot, and only later with training grows.
You might point out that he destroyed the Death Star by opening up to the Force with little prior instruction. But Rey shows up able to pilot the Falcon through an escape that would make Han wince, a ship she strongly implied to never have flown before, as well as do things via the Force that Luke took years to discover.
And if I’m playing by your standards, this opinion has been very prevalent following the release of the film, so you must be objectively wrong for disagreeing.

Change her to male and none of this is any different.
