I'm enjoying it, too. But, let me tell you why these creators are cowards:
Since Return of the Jedi everyone has been obsessed with the blue elephant pianist, Max Rebo. Max Rebo is canonically an Ortolan, the only one we've ever seen- but we've never seen his lower half so everyone is asking the dire question: Do Ortolan have legs? Neel is also a blue elephant person but has been explicitly stated that he's NOT an Ortolan because they are too AFRAID to answer this burning question the fanbase has wanted- NEEDED to know for decades
I could have sworn he canonically plays piano with his feet and in fact has no arms.
The puppet in the movie was built to be that way but I think in a comic or something in the 90's they showed him as having arms and legs which kicked off this VERY important subject of debate
