Yeah, the director, Gareth Edwards, was like, “What's this!?” And as you say, it was a marketing idea. It is a cool shot though.
The Rogue One trailer's feature quite a lot of deleted footage, especially as there were reshoots to change the ending. Some trailers feature footage of Jinn and the gang running across the beach and if you look closely, she has the Death Star data hard drive in her hand. This is taken from the original end action sequence. There are quite a few YouTube videos that pull out all the footage from the marketing and show what didn't end up in the finished film.
