During the final battle on Crait, when they begin the battle, a rebel climbs out of the trench and scans the First Order's forces landing on the planet.
One soldier takes up some of the white powder on their finger, licks it and says “It’s salt.”
Was there any relevance to there being a layer of salt? Has this been commented on by any officials? Why could they not simply have used any other white powder or something else?
Did it possibly have any part in:
Allowing Luke to display himself there as an image, while still on Ahch-To?
Essentially the question is why did they point out the salt?
Answer
It could be snow instead of salt, that's irrelevant. The point is that it's a very thin white layer that is wiped clean by simply walking on it.
When the Resistance leader walks on it, he reveals the red underneath. But when Luke moves his feet while facing down Kylo Ren, the salt stays and the red underneath isn't exposed! It's a subtle hint that he's not actually there in physical form.
