Hmm, I think the whole implication of Han and Leia not being together or failing their kid, as well as Luke’s Jedi Academy going down in flames (meta wise, Mara Jade and Ben Skywalker, his own family were ‘erased’ from Disney canon) didn’t sit well with some fans.
Even the characters have flaws and their lives are hectic, but some fans still highly admire them and to them, they represent the best of the best.
Personally I wouldn’t want to imagine my favorite canon characters fail and give up on things.

I’m curious about your thoughts on New Jedi Order? The series focuses on the next generation of Skywalker-Solos but it isn’t completely happy either.

Also, that ship, imo, was one of the worst aspects of the sequels. Meanwhile Rey and Finn had good chemistry but sadly he was sidelined and she was propped up as a ‘Mary Sue’. :/
