...that TLJ (and Rian Johnson) didn't provide answers to because Abrams never scripted answers to TFA plot and character questions in the first place!

At least Lucas (like normal storytellers) has an idea or concept of where character development mystery and story questions are going. And he handed those things over to writers he shared duties with, or who took over for him.
Abrams never does. He just creates questions without answers to hook audiences with fake intrigue. It's a creation of Abrams that he calls "mystery box". He handed Johnson nothing to work off of.
So TLJ just ignored most of it.
