Anyone who misses a second run event has made the choice to do so. They may have had good reasons to do that, but it's still on them.
Typically i would agree with this statement. But not for JKL. With Hermit Yoda and Wampa being G1 token characters unless you had them before the event, even with farming all your g1 tokens into them you would not have these characters when it ran the second time.
I speak from person experience. I had hermit yoda already, but had only 10/330 on wampa when the requirements for JKL were first announced. I have put ever g1 token from LSTB (we do Geo at 16 stars), DSTB (we do Geo at 30 stars) and HSith Raid (I place routinely in top 3) into wampa and I just now on Oct 4th 7 stared Wampa.
So the earliest you could do this is a third run on the normal cycle if you didn't have these two characters (and you do hoth at 40+ stars). If you are doing Geo TB you'll like only get JKL on his 4th return...
This isn't even going into the fact that CG said when hermit yoda and wampa came out that they WOULD NOT BE USED IN Legendary Events...
All this to say, its not crazy for people to ask for the JKL event to run along side the release of JML, it doesn't negatively affect the JKL population. It would just be an example of them giving access to content needed for the event.
Truthfully it doesn't matter to me, i'll end up getting JML around Christmas either way as i round out all the relic requirements needed for him. But CG can earn some community good will by making required events more accessible.
