She doesn’t have the Jedi tag in game...

She literally calls herself all the jedi in the movie

Then you should watch the movie if you want her to be a Jedi.

she is a jedi in wookiepedia

Then you should read wookieepedia.

i don't get what your argument is

TVF doesn't really do that, he just likes to troll.

Ultimately, the answer is game balance. Tags are balance first and lore second. CG's definition of UFU is a force user not tagged Jedi or Sith. Rey meets that criteria, and so gets the UFU tag. It really is that simple.

This is just wrong. If CG needs to balance something, they build it into the kit, like JKL basically pretending the OR Jedi aren’t Jedi at all.

In the dev insights for Rey (https://forums.galaxy-of-heroes.starwars.ea.com/discussion/226079/developer-insights-rey#:~:text=Rey%20is%20one%20of%20the,name%20is%20simply%20%E2%80%9CRey%E2%80%9D.&text=Rey%20can%20lead%20almost%20any,Poe%20and%20Resistance%20Hero%20Finn)), this is Rey up until the end of the movie. Just like Luke, she didn’t become a Jedi until she defeated a Sith. Is she eventually a Jedi? Yes. But the game version is a specific point in time where she isn’t. She has the UFU tag because she wasn’t a Jedi, just like older versions of AT aren’t Jedi. Or Visas. Or CLS.

It's not wrong. JKL doesn't have the Rebel tag for balance reasons, to use your own example.

You could argue that Rey is a Jedi for the entire episode 9. CLS was actively training with an actual Jedi Master so he was definitely a Jedi at the time.

If I felt like digging through I could probably find plenty of other examples. Plus I'm fairly positive they've said as much at some point, though I don't feel like digging for that quote.
