The OT era is apparently the dumb era
Time

Han says he has been around and not seen evidence that the Force or anything like it is real.
It’s a galaxy where most Force Users are dead or in hiding, the dominant and tyrannical political power represses information and sympathy for a pro-Jedi pro-Force interpretation of phenomena, history and culture and Han is cynical.
He doesn’t say he’s never heard of the Force he just doesn’t believe in it. Luke has never heard of it because he lives in the middle of nowhere and his adoptive parents actively dance around the subject. It’s sort of weird he believes so quickly but maybe he has an instinct for these things in his genes.
The dumb era is the ST era. Presumably with the rise of Republic on one side and the rise of the First Order on the other promoting and evoking the memory of famous Force users would be something both sides would do. Vader the hero of the Empire. Luke the hero of the Alliance. Rey thinks the stories are mythical but she already has powers along the same lines as those stories. It’s like someone with a green thumb not believing in Percy Thrower.

I suppose it could be the ‘parking’ light. So in ROTJ:R we might see the light off as the walker approaches the platform but as it stops the light goes on and the people walk out of hatch.
That really has nothing to do with reason I brought it up again but there you go 😄

The idea of it being the default lighting or a HUD was thrown out years ago. I only mentioned in relation to ROAST which is my preferred acronym for the new spin off 😄
Having one walker switch on a red light some way into the battle would establish this is something that happens for reasons we don’t need to know, but isn’t the default setting or signifying the leader or anything like that.
But as I said I am aware that if the ST isn’t important to this project the spin offs are probably less so.
