Star Wars: The Acolyte [Spoilers on the North Ridge!]

I kind of agree, but there's still a not-zero percent chance that this was intentional.

After all, there's been talk many times of the Jedi temple having lost its way, turning inwards, becoming conservative and stagnant. And this ultimately lead to the Jedi temple's downfall.

At least; that's how I prefer to look at it for now

Sorry man, but how an institution has become inward-looking, conservative, and stagnant is best portrayed effectively through subtle and nuanced acting and dialogue. This isn't that. 

(I admit, much as I loved SW in my 1980s youth, I'm not such a fan that the world-building/eye candy outweighs poor acting/plot/script, but I don't want to take anything away from folk who are bigger fans than me).

Got to say that I don't feel a connection to the show yet. If I'm asked, I'll say it's alright. Hopefully it will grow on me.
