No character growth, no arc, just in one scene he has no trouble murdering an innocent guy WHO HELPED HIM BTW, but later refuses to take out a military target HE WAS SUPPOSED to kill.

Yeah, it's almost like the target he was about to assassinate could be the only person in the galaxy who knows how to take out the weapon he just witnessed level a city.

To say nothing of crapping all over the iconic opening of Star Wars by having Vader watch the Death Star plans fly away, personally, with his own eyes.

Those two scenes line up perfectly and imo are quite satisfying when watching the two films back to back. In what way does Rogue One's ending "crap all over" A New Hope's opening?

In Star Wars, Vader interrogates Leia, he talks about the plans being transmitted, not that he saw them personally be stolen.

He's also ragged on by Motti for not having found the tapes when Rogue One puts him in the same hallway with them.

Speaking of... he force grabs every one and every thing in that hallway except the ONE THING he's there for. Vader is not that STUPID.

The Death Star Plans have plot armor, they HAVE to get away, don't put them in the same hallway as Vader and don't make them a physical object that can be grabbed.
