Really they make no sense anymore within the context of TLJ.
His character arc is now meaningless, in the context of the series proper

The hyperspace ram was awful.
They should have had a moon for the evac to happen out of scanner range. Then had her jump and lead the fleet away before they realized the survivors got a base operating with a shield up and everything.
Then played out the ground assault.
But we all just have to acknowledge at this point we're all just in the Architect's room
saying the same things over.

Feel free to explain. Maybe you'll make a good argument for that being correct. No one else has, but maybe you're different.
Hyperspace as a weapon is near the bottom of issues with TLJ.

Wouldn't that be convenient. You want a garbage director, and terrible writers and actors to execute the most predictable plot imaginable given the story. Pass.

Because it makes sense to have a decoy operation. The rebels used to be good at it. Apparently lost their edge in between.
Hyperspace rules established is a smaller mass should do jack shite to a mass in real space. otherwise Droid strike a shuttle into the shield station on endor. Send a heavy cruiser down on starkiller base.

You don't understand hyperspace lanes.

What rules? Established when? By whom?

The OT, books, games, 40 years of franchise not weaponizing because of the can of worms it would open.

Nope. None of that establishes any rule that it can't be weaponized.

Why does Luke have to make that tunnel run and hit a precise shot into the exhaust system of the Death Star in order to blow it up? Why don't they just hyperspace ram straight into it with a capital ship and go home?
Why don't they just hyperspace ram un-manned a-wings into the bridge of Imperial Star Destroyers to cripple them?
If they had the ability to do that all along, none of the other space battles in the series make any sense at all.
The hyperspace ram was a cool visual, but a bad plot device.

Having the ability to do something isn't the same as having the knowledge to do it.

So the excuse is "gee, I never thought of that..."? Hyperspace isn't some new technology in this fictional universe. In fact, it's been around for thousands of years. It didn't take long for the Japanese to figure out they could just crash their zeros into American capital ships to cripple them, and the airplane had only been in existence for like 35 years. Hyperspace in Star Wars has existed for thousands of years!!!

Excuse? No. It's one explanation of many possibilities. You don't have to like it because it isn't your story. It was never your story. Time to accept that.

Ok, you're just some sort of troll. But anyway.

Hyperspace was an alternate dimension that could only be reached by traveling at or faster than the speed of light. Hyperdrives enabled starships to travel through hyperspace lanesacross great distances, enabling travel and exploration throughout the galaxy.
Nature
Hyperspace was a dimension of space-time[1]alternative to that of realspace. It could only be accessed through molecular displacement, which was achieved by breaking the speed of light.[2] It was coterminous with realspace, meaning that each point in realspace was associated with a unique point in hyperspace, and all adjacent points in realspace were adjacent in hyperspace as well. Additionally, every object in realspace (such as stars, planets, and asteroids) had its "shadow" counterpart in hyperspace. Aside from those well-established facts acknowledged by all competent astrophysicists and astrogationexperts, other aspects of hyperspace admittedly remained a mystery.[

Did you watch TLJ. The hyperspace ram established shields don't matter and half a fleet can be effected by it.
