Yeah, what I'm trying to say though is that while I thought it was cool to think that Yoda trained Obi Wan, there is only one problem with the fact that Qui Gon trained Obi and that's that it contradicted an OT throwaway line. So I realize why that can be an irritating plot point, the thing is it's not really a bad plot point, when you look at it from a PT perspective, it's a good plot point. So why get rid of that plot point? (I also have to wonder if getting rid of it is even possible.) 

Same goes for Leia's mother dying. Yeah, before the ROTS I thought Leia knew her mother before she died. ROTS shat on that. But you know what? I don't care. Because Padme's death was actually fairly emotional and really helped that film in my opinion. In ROTJ, Leia's mother surviving is, again, just a throwaway line. I liked it before for the sole reason that it made me curious. But does it really add to the film? I don't think it does.
