Physical vs Special Damage?

I know how they work and they are different. My question is more about the toons they choose to have physical and special damage.

I would think melee and shooters to physical damage while lightsaber and force users do special damage and that’s not always the case. Is there a process that determines who does physical damage or special damage or a toon that does both? Is it used for balancing? Just curious.

I've always thought it was just what CG thought they should have. Thrawn, despite having no 'special abilities' like the force deals special damage? Because why not?

It's all just arbitrary, cos we are just playing with holograms. Some characters that use Lightsabres deal physical damage whereas majority deal special damage. I don't think there'll ever be justification...

Roll a dice:
1-3 = phys dmg, 4-6 = special dmg

I just hope that one day, if they add ghost versions of Ben, Yoda, and Anakin (and anyone else who might turn into a ghost), that they are immune to physical damage.
I'm gonna regret saying that when I end up not getting one of the ghost characters.
