I agree, it's always been a feature of Star Wars. I think it stands out more in TLJ though because some of dichotomous character traits came looong after people had already made up their minds about a specific character (Luke) or misunderstood what the character was supposed to represent (Kylo, and the people who are annoyed he failed as a "scary villain" when that was clearly never his character direction to begin with).

True. But I think it's a bit weird in TLJ because imo, they tried so hard to subvert character expectations that it didn't feel like a logical development in some cases but more a "let's subvert it for subversion's sake". While I didn't hate TLJ, I felt a lot of the plot and character development was very dependent on "what will surprise or even piss people off the most" - no matter if it served the story or not.

I think there's a significant and good thematic justification for pretty much everything they did in the movie

I might be forgetting something though, but I definitely think that's true of EG Luke and Kylo
