If they made the episodes into a longer one for the sake of the story, disney couldnt milk a few more weeks out of the subscriptions that people are paying for.
thats why the obiwan vs vader fight in the obiwan series was so good too. the visions and dialogue and lighting, so much thought in every element. and your point about building up the characters all the way up to that point.
Memorable Lightsaber fights in the first 6 movies, they were either the pivoting point of characters, or it was a like an explosion of a conflict that has been brewing.
"Best fight choreography" Brother, half the fight is hidden behind trees and darkness to avoid showing how much of the fight was just intentional missing and meaningless moves. Shadiversity did a great video breaking down just how bad this fight is, specially in comparison to the prequels. That's not to say it wasn't fun to watch. It was. But seriously, the choreography was bad. Not sequel level bad, but bad.
