Seriously?
You could technobabble away the problem in Last Jedi because of the hyperspace tether, but this is just stupid.
Thats the news I have heard. Its in German, so no idea how useful this is. I will link it but am currently not in the mood to hunt down the source of this. So hopefully google translate does a good job with it
EDIT: Found the English source (IGN, the full first chapter of the book)
“The destruction of the Legacy Run is the catalyst for a galaxy-wide disaster. Fragments of the destroyed cargo vessel begin flying out of hyperspace at super-accelerated speeds, meaning that deadly missiles of debris can appear anywhere at any time, from the Outer Rim to the Core. In this moment of crisis, the Republic turns to the guardians of peace and justice—the Jedi.”
