It was totally the deepest or most genuinely significant part of the movie (or rather, it was part of it, since it tied in to the other freedom fighting that was going on). I meant the decision to tackle the issue was perhaps either come to later on in the writing process, or that that subplot/theme had lost some of its mass in the course of rewrites and direction changes, because it wasn't well handled.

I've thought it was unambiguous that the droids are sentient beings since the original trilogy, though it seems in verse most people don't think that much about the issue. But in my view that has important implications about the human characters associated with droids. This subplot could have been really good, had it been done well, but I don't think it was done well because of the way her activism and particularly Lando's attitudes towards it and her were portrayed (but I didn't go into all of that in the post because it was beside the point).
