Spoiler!

This is exactly the same methodology that Mace Windu used in an attempt to kill the Emperor in Revenge of the Sith. Had Anakin not intervened, Mace would have killed him and the story would have been over.

Also, there were plenty of "Force Healers" in the old EU. We just saw Baby Yoda do the same for The Mandalorian a few weeks ago.

I'm personally happy that Ben Solo dies. He was irredeemable, IMO. If they had redeemed him, I wouldn't have been able to take the story seriously. He wasn't like Anakin, a hero of the Republic and/or the person that saved his son and turned away from the Dark Side

Yeah, I watched the execution of it already. It ****ing sucks, in my opinion. If you think differently, that's great, but the entire sequence feels incredibly rushed and underserved, and it's the god-damned climax of this trilogy of movies.
