At the risk of combining pedantry with Star Wars nerd crap, I believe (this is just what I remember) that there's a line or two in the movie that states that the ship's shields were fully down, and it's implied that this is the only reason why the suicide attack worked. In lore, shields on ships are primarily for physical objects (like asteroids and crap), so it makes sense to me that they can, I guess, magically repel even other ships in hyperdrive unless the shields are down.
From the debate at the time, I think it was a timing thing too, you jump too soon you’re an ethereal hyperdrive ship that passes through them, you jump too late their shields are up and /or their tractor beam is stopping you (for small kamikaze ships).
That’s why I think Leia should have done it and for any non force user it would have been next to impossible etc. Plus it completes Kylo’s ascension that both his parents are dead.
