You said the first scene, by which I assume you're referencing when Rey hands him the lightsaber and he tosses it away, "basically took a shit on a beloved character by way of cheap slapstick," which I thoroughly disagree with. I think him rejecting the lightsaber is perfectly in character with what we saw in the OT and the 30 years of character development since.
My guy, I literally say that my issue is the slapstick way he rejects the saber. I don't have an issue with him rejecting it, I have an issue with him throwing it away for a cheap laugh.
He could have laid it down, he could have given it back to Rey - anything is better than him carelessly throwing it over his shoulder.
