Vader only kills you if you're incompetent,extremely annoying, actively trying to kill him or if it's necessary for his plans. He isn't going to murder a random trooper because of mild embarrassment.

@CHRF-55457 Ай бұрын

He once killed a stormtrooper for seeing his face unmasked accidentally. Through tbf, perhaps Vader did it to save his reputation? Cus that stormtrooper said Mother of Moons! when he saw Vader's face.

The answer to that question? Because it features believable and relatable situations. I'd imagine a lot of people in this comment section can relate to being in such a tense situation with their boss, knowing their job and livelihood (or life in this stormtrooper's case) are on the line and can't afford to screw up.
