Yes! Exactly. A time to be clear with yourself about whether you want to stay on this path. Recognition of a certain level of skill, self-mastery, and maturity to operate independently. Under the structure of the Order as it was before I was born, Knights could do solo missions, had more control over what they worked on. And, at least technically, could take on an apprentice, although my impression is most Knights didn't dive into that right away.

[Some of their resident Jedi excepted. And Kanan had not been Knighted when he took Ezra on, not at first.]

A lot of that doesn't apply here, but well, I needed something to at least serve as the commitment part. Got a whole lot more than I was expecting.
