So saying “the hero’s journey is a silly concept” is not a blanket statement that you can apply to every story universe or central character. Star Wars is a coming of age story. The Hero's Journey is specifically the idea that every story of a heroic character has certain elements that are listed as necessary but that implies a template. Flash Gordon doesn't follow the Hero's Journey. Sherlock Holmes doesn't--so it's not a template. Because they don't have origin stories--it was decided the adventure is more interesting if it happens later--not a coming of age story. If the character is a teenager then yes-you can expect they would learn things, but it's not written in stone as the Hero's Journey suggests.
What you just said only proves my point.

I disagree that she is a great character, i also don't think she is an awful character I think Rey is a mediocre character. I also hate the name Rey, they should have given her a better name, honestly the worst thing about her character is her name. Agreed. I actually really liked Daisy Ridley in the role. I just think she mighta been pulled in too many direction during her character arc.
