I would absolutely not even slightly put it past him to either:A) Just have missed that they weren't dead.B) Not missed it, but lied about it, especially if he left them to DIAF.Plus one of the actresses on Twitter (who I will not name in case they get in trouble with Disney) vaguely implied that this might not be the last time you see their character.That's immaterial. They were there first. They are from a totally different cultural tradition, and their presence has returned life to the planet, and the Jedi act exactly like the usual pith-helmed European colonial types, who know their religion/science/ways of doing things are right, and these other people are obviously backwards and hurting children (because the Jedi separating kids from their parents and indoctrinating them into their weird cult and then using them very literally as child-soldiers certainly doesn't hurt children right). The Jedi (especially other than Indara, and she just seems like she's being diplomatic in case they're dangerous) clearly have contempt for their ways.You're literally just wrong, sorry. It's not even up for debate because it's on Disney+ mate.Just open Disney+ back up, go to 14.52 left to go and watch. Sol not only pulls his lightsaber, but turns, draws it back and THRUSTS directly and intentionally into Aniseya's chest area.Watching it once I can understand how you might misinterpret it, but simply re-watch it - it's incredibly obvious because that sequence is in slo-mo. Sol draws back and strikes with quite a clean thrust. Whether he expected it to work is a separate question - he seems possibly surprised (or perhaps just regretful) when it does, but it's an intentional killing. A murder. He wouldn't have thrust like that if he thought she was gone for sure. If you fire a shotgun at a bush you think someone might be hiding in, and a dead body falls out, you might well immediately feel guilty/sad or just realize, like, y'know, you're about to be prosecuted for murder or the worst kind of manslaughter (which in the UK has essentially the same sentence as murder), but you can't say you weren't taking an action that was potentially going to lead to a dead body.</blockquote>
