Does it even make sense he could crush the darksaber, power armor or not? Shouldn't that thing be made of super-beskar and functionally indestructible given how famous it is?
I'm more worried about Bo's hand; Gideon probably crushed more than a couple bones in her hand when he destroyed the Darksaber.That is the same thing I was wondering.
Then again we never really know what it is made out of.
But I think they destroyed it so that way a new form of rule is formed instead of relying on such a stupid means to he mandalore
I gotta admit I kinda feel this way.Yet another example of destroying the past to make way for the new. Gee, I wonder if there's an agenda.

Between Rebels and The Mandalorian, I’m now semi-convinced that Filoni is not a very good writer.
You also hold to the fact Jedi and the force is prominent and neededRebels clearly had Disney mandate to make a more kid friendly show than Clone Wars had turned into. As such much of the toning down of things from Clone Wars clearly was corporate mandate over Filoni. Corporate censorship is clear throughout the entire series, from Ezra sticking with his stun weapon for so long to a bunch of the small things like how combat was portrayed.
I personally liked Rebels quite a bit, having watched it both as it aired and rewatched on Disney+. I think it holds up to a rewatch as a whole better than Clone Wars does (look, I know that sounds sacrilegious, but seriously S1 of Clone Wars is ROUGH to watch not just from storytelling but also animation quality and style... it took time for them to get their stride and figure out how to pace things and animate them, and a lot of folks forget how Ashoka was actually somewhat the annoying kid sidekick in that season and was arguably more annoying than Ezra ever was in Rebels).
But then, I'm the guy who thinks Rebels is much more Star Wars than Andor, and whom didn't hate Book of Boba Fett as much as the fandom (likely helped by the fact that unlike so many other SW fans I felt Fett was an overrated character and I never got into the EU stuff so I never felt "betrayed" by how Fett was portrayed in that series, he was consistent with his portrayal in Clone Wars, the movies, and in Mando). I also think Rogue One was overrated and felt the entire "making the Rebels look more gray" in that movie was rather contrived, though Rogue One at least did feel like Star Wars aside from that.
