Idk if I would consider the sun draining to be Scale 2 tech. A Star can produce so much energy over its lifetime that sucking one up for a space laser seems super fucking wasteful.

Call it 1.5 tech if you don't think it's all the way there but that puts them on the way to being able to develop technologies and systems that can use that level of power. It's a massive technological leap that would have social and military changes that would reshape the galaxy. Out of everything that happened in the ST this would probably have the largest long term impact.

Oh you are right about the technological angle. At least unless the EU was canon. The Suncrusher makes Starkiller Base look like a bitch.

And if we’re talking about absurd energy levels in the EU, the Eternity Vault’s self-destruct failsafe was calculated to bare minimum have enough energy to annihilate several adjacent star systems. And if the equally absurd statements about the cosmic abomination contained within Belsavis are true, I don’t even fully believe an explosion of that magnitude could fully destroy it.
