The issue with TFA’s worldbuilding is that it smashes us back to the Episode 4 status quo - uberpowerful Empire with limitless personnel, small band of rebels - without ever connecting or explaining WHY either side enjoyed such a dramatic swing of fortunes in the intervening years.

Because remember: They need us to believe they have a super-duper-uberpowerful product that "could kill humanity", so the investors are impressed and give them the hundreds of billions they need not to go bankrupt.
