* AdultFear: Two year old Ben Solo is left home alone with a babysitter droid, BX, which nearly kills him after receiving the kill order that overrides its usual programming. Luckily, BX snaps out of it before Ben is seriously harmed and is confused more than anything, [[LaserGuidedAmnesia not remembering what took place]], but it was an extremely close call. It's not clear if Ben's parents ever learnt how close he came to a grisly death or if he himself recalls any of this.

* {{Hypocrite}}: Fyzen's plan to liberate droids is to force them into killing organics on what are essentially ''his'' orders. Both Han and Lando note the hypocrisy of this.

* EvilPowerVacuum: While the intentions behind it were noble, Mon Mothma's demilitarization of the New Republic proves problematic even before what happens [[Film/TheForceAwakens nearly three decades later]]. With the government having barely any army, the [[NGOSuperpower various criminal organizations]] are almost on equal grounds with them and they try to take advantage of it. Even some of Mothma's closest advisors (the heroes of the Original Trilogy) thought demilitarizing so soon after the Empire's defeat was a bad idea.
