Star Wars has had fiery explosions in space since the beginning. the first prequel movie had a fire in the shield generator of a star ship when it got shot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfMoXBOjWBM
atmospheric physics in space is just part of star wars's suspension of disbelief.
Still not even the same problem. A whole scene constructed around fire suppression in space is a completely different challenge to suspension of disbelief from a 1-second shot of a fire that's vaguely merged with a spaceship's departure from the atmosphere. Suspension of disbelief depends on audience perception, not on analyzed laws of physics of a fictional universe.
