Leia doesn't mention that Chewie wasn't here. It was a little bit like insult to injury when you considered how soon it has been to her arrival that she had lost Han. And she doesn't mention that this place pretty much does what it wants given everything. So instead she just focuses on the brighter speck of his conversation rather than talking about losing Han.
She wasn't ready to go there, not yet.
But of course she wasn't going to allow the dig from her twin to go unanswered. "Oh please," she dismissed as she toggled a few switches trusting that she wasn't going to blow themselves up given everything. "There is no way that she is as bad as me at that age. You maybe, but definitely not me."
Leia had already put it together that he was from later in the timeline than she was (and honestly when had she started thinking that way?!) especially because he knew Rey well enough to have that read on her. Maybe it was something that Leia had always thought was simply a Skywalker trait, but maybe it was a Force user one: they were all a pain in the ass.
But there's something that he needs to know if he's not connected with the Force and she looks at him with her very intent General Organa stare. "Ben is here too."
