Who cares, Disney Star Wars isn’t canon anyway to me

That could have been "inspired" by a story in the old EU, in which the lightsaber also was found by an Ugnaught working in the trash pile — but with Luke's severed hand still gripping it.Apparently in the comics, Star Wars (2020) issue #4, the lightsaber was recovered on Bespin by an Ugnaught after Luke gave up looking for the lightsaber.
There was this comic of a mystery person catching it as it fell, (during the battle.) The art style is similar to the one of the Ugnaught finding it, but that already makes their story different. But I can't find any more info from this, so I have no idea.... or what Disney even considers canon at this point. They probably don't even know.

The story of Kenobi's lightsaber was originally going to be one of the standalone movies, but when Solo bombed, they redeveloped it into a limited series, Ala The God's must be Crazy where a bunch of Jawas found it and hilarity ensued. They filmed 98% of the footage and Kennedy fired the directors when during test screenings she felt the Jawas bore too much resemblance to an isolated tribe of jellyfish and feared the political backlash. So she hired Ron Howard who filmed more but was also fired over creative differences and replaced with the corpse of Steve Jobs who altered the script to a first person shooter video game. When some parent outreach group objected to it being too violent they scrapped that and used an old Lucas treatment from 1974 to develop it into a 5 issue limited comicbook. At that point Collider review bombed the comic because it conflicted canonically with The Last Jedi. As of now the last known whereabouts of this project are rumored to be narrowed down further into a ComicCon 2025 exclusive Hasbro Black series FX saber with Vaders severed hand replica attached.
Someone from Lucasfilm violated his NDA to tell me this. I hope he doesn't get fired too...
The falling item is his hand and saber. People dispute this, but I will die on this hill.How do we know it fell into the clouds? Luke's hand is chopped off a good minute or more before he drops down the shaft. From the shot of him falling, it is obvious there are numerous exhaust holes (or whatever you want to call them). When Luke stops in the shaft for a moment there is no sign of his lightsaber being there and when he is hanging on the antennae it is not the lightsaber we see falling. Why would there be any inclination that the lightsaber ended up where Luke was?
