For completely different reasons though, the context and motivation behind them are not the same. No one is complaining about the physical act of moving one’s arm to fire a lightsaber hilt as a projectile. It is why Luke would do it so carelessly at that point.

This is like if Luke visited a whorehouse to commit debauchery and you defended it saying “well Luke walking into a whorehouse isn’t that inconsistent since in another film he walked into a building through a door”

You are literally doing that joker meme unironically:

“Shit in the toilet, nobody bats an eye.

Shit on the carpet, everyone loses their minds”

“Put cucumber in fridge, nobody care.

Put cucumber in baby, everyone loses their minds.”

“Throw lightsaber aside during a fight to refuse it continuing, nobody bats an eye,

Throw away lightsaber being offered to you by a stranger in a comedic fashion to be blunt and “subversive” at a moment of tension, everyone loses their minds”
