My apologies if I seemed over aggressive; that wasn't the tone I was trying to convey. However, the post in question specifically refers to the characters actions. I love Star Wars, but I will forever be bugged about that scene in ANH where Leia, who watched her own planet be destroyed, comforts Luke about the death of someone he barely knows.

While I agree that the destruction of Alderaan and its massive death toll is egregiously brushed over in the original trilogy, I feel that in that scene it wasn't at all odd. Other than Artoo or Threepio, nobody else in that room has any connection to Leia or Alderaan, and Luke is focused on the personal tragedy that had just occurred in front of him.
Now, if Obi-Wan had survived I could easily see him (Obi-Wan) sharing a moment of sympathy and mutual grief with Leia, but as it was bringing up the planets destruction during the escape sequence wouldn't have really worked emotionally.
