Looks like I’m not. Boyegas story had no relevance to the outcome of the film, isaac’s too, then ren is ignored for most of the middle portion unless it is part of rey’s Story.

Yep they needed to keep it nice and simple. It should have been this:

Thread A: Luke training Rey
Thread B: Snoke training Kylo
Thread C: Poe, Finn, Leia, 3PO, and Billie Lourd fleeing from Hux.

Threads A and B interconnect throughout the film and merge at the 2/3rds mark. Also this should be 80% of the movie. For Thread C, just rip off Empire for all I care and leave Rose out of it. Thread C merges on the final planet with the other 2 threads in the middle of the third act.
