Jess always said that I was a terrible optimist, so I guest this is one of my particular flaws. I do think we all can get better with time but as you said, when it comes to long-term scale it's very tricky.

[The last time Poe saw someone face a lightsaber it ended in murder, he's very happy not to see that happening again.]
