This, damn.

Also, operational security is a thing, and it's important. Commanders don't withold information because they're meanies, they withold information because minimizing the number of people who know the details of a plan is the best way to minimize the number of people who can leak that plan, even accidentally. Which Poe, as someone who was career military, should have known, especially in a situation where it looked like there might have been a spy in the resistance.

Also Poe's reaction was to do something that did end up endangering the fleet, thus proving his unreliability.

Absolutely. I think maybe the fact that hyperspace tracking was completely unknown to the Resistance (so it was an eminently reasonable conclusion that there was a spy in the midst) was missed by some of the audience.

The execution was so bad, I literally didn't catch the "we think there's a spy onboard" thing during the first watch. I mean, I knew there was a tracker, because that's what Finn & Rose needed to disable, but it was ... not handled very well. I was much confused, & yes, if it had been presented more clearly, I wouldn't have had any trouble believing Holdo was holding her cards close to her chest for that reason (& yes, the pun is intentional).
