but for the kids of those fans who got taken to see the movie.

There's nothing kids like more than the economic implications of trade disputes and political posturing in governmental politics. /s

Lego has never released sets covering these scenes which consumed a surprisingly large amount of screen time.

Yes, there was plenty of other stuff for kids to like, but I'd say it succeeded in spite of how bad a move it was. I wouldn't call the movie brilliant because of that thought. Yes, I'm still disappointed I camped out in front of the theater the day before to get tickets for opening night.
