I would add that I think Rey suffered more public criticism for it in part because of the sometimes sexist-elements of Mary Sue criticism, and as part of the butt-hurt objections raised by the same idiots who thought “A Black Male Lead!?! A Black Stormtrooper!?!”

...The fact those guys kind of got what they wanted a bit by TROS with Ben Solo being elevated above Finn and Rey having to share the stage with him kind of angers me.
