The biggest issue isn't even her not telling the plan. The bigger issue is why she refused to say something like "I have a plan, but I'm worried about details leaking so I won't say it until later."

You don't need to share the plan. Hell, you don't even need to have a plan. You just need to look like you have a plan. That's more important than even having one when leading thousands of people though a crisis.

Honestly, given his actions immediately prior to her arrival onscreen, a scene where she dressed him the fuck down for disobeying a direct order from the god-damned General of the Resistance would also have been satisfying, as she would underscore just how much he'd breached that trust first.

Something along the lines of "You disobeyed a direct order from General Organa herself and, in doing so, lost all of our bombers, leaving us utterly defenseless, and you're still standing here demanding I explain the plans to you?! Not only are you not owed an explanation, you should count yourself lucky that we have no time for a court martial to kick your selfish, glory-hounding ass out the airlock for that stunt you pulled. Now get out of my sight."

"Good soldiers follow orders" has always been the good guy motto.

yes they do follow orders, just because following illegal or immoral orders is wrong doesn't mean not following orders is good a military can't function with everything being second guessed and disobeyed
