Not quite the same IMO. Were there other named characters (who spoke in ESB) they could have used instead of Starck? Might be wrong, but afaik Veers was the only such other prominent walker driver during Hoth.
Conversely, Crix Madine is on screen, has lines, and is named during the build up to Endor. My annoyance (it’s no more than that really and I’ll get over myself once I need him for Leia) is that they’ve created a character from scratch when there’s already a great character in the lore, who was also a part of the EU too (Darksaber anyone?), to build from. If they had literally named the character Madine rather than Drogan it would be no problem for me. YMMV

I don't care for any of those characters. :D

What is GBA and 50R-T’s lore?
To be fair though, GBA is a nameless drone from planet where these sorts or things are common and honestly, who cares about 50rt? I don't have her geared up, most people don't. I never see youtube videos or threads talking about how amazing she is, and I certainly don't see anyone saying anything else about her. However she isn't replacing anyone, no major plot arcs or stories have been influenced by her existence.
Were there soldiers off screen in the battle of endor? Absolutely. So why are none of the ones we know exist and that some of us, especially in regards to one of my favorites, Crix Madine, shown and instead replaced?
This has all the marks of what we in the military call, the good idea fairy. It's when someone with no useful or worthwhile ideas decides he's going to shove his own idea down the throats of everyone else simply because he can, regardless of whether it's bad or even just worthless. Drogan is the epitomy of the good idea fairy.
RIP Crix Madine, Nien Nunb, every Bothan Spy, Nik Sant....and every other character that already exists and actually matters. And that's just the folks I remember were a part of the story.
But hey, whoever decided to make drogan, at least there's something in star Wars that you can say you made.....
Most people do have 50-RT geared. She's a Leviathan prerequisite. That's so last month. But Nien Nunb should 100% be in-game!

When there are actual toons they could introduce who do exist, and we’d like, I object to them wasting my resources on it. Especially as they’re making him a GL requirement:
“Here’s a new character we invented who has no connection to anything you’ve ever seen/read/played/watched, and we just invented him because we’re woke and pushing agendas. Who cares what Lucasfilm/Disney would say about us adding to their franchise and changing it, we’re going to do it because we want to make you waste resources on this useless PoS in order to get a GL. Cuz we know you wouldn’t bother getting the toon if we didn’t make you.”
