Luke's comment in the teaser trailer for TLJ means nothing at this point. There's no context to know what he means. Not to mention there's always a chance it may not even be in the movie at all if you consider what was absent in TFA and R1 from their respective trailers.

I don't see how a concept of "grey jedi" could fit into the current star wars canon. Not following rules is not the same as following the dark side. Neither is being aggressive the same as abandoning the light side. Do you think Qui-Gon is represented as a dark side user? What about the bendu? Do you think he is grey or just ambiguous and indifferent?

There is no grey side of the force in star wars. We are told that the dark side is about following ones selfish passions and lust for power and control, where as following the light side is about selflessness and compassion and submission and love. I don't see how you could logically embrace both of these at the same time. It kinda makes for a ridiculous hypocritical character.

It fits perfectly. The reason the Sith exist is because of the Jedi. To destroy the Sith, the Jedi must also go. I see this being the theme in this entire new trilogy. Ben Solo is repeating history because Luke tried restoring the Jedi Order. Luke will realize the Sith will always exist as long as the Jedi exist. Many Jedi fall to the dark side due to the **** rules the Jedi Order implemented. Anakin would have never turned to the dark side if the Jedi would have allowed him to marry Padme.

Luke is going to figure this out. He's making the same mistakes other Jedi did before him. Therefore creating the Knights of Ren and a new Sith order. It's inevitably leading to Luke being a grey Jedi.
