That’s why I said in the first 6 episodes.

I agree but is there room (or is it even needed) anywhere in the 6 movies ? What I mean is that the PT is the first movement, the initial error (the fact the Jedi are failling is the heart of Episode III; Dooku explains it in a few Episode II dialogues; we even see the Jedi Council more interested by politics than by mystical propheties in Episode I => so it’s pretty obvious during the PT that the Jedi Order is wrong, but the main protagonists just don’t admit it… or not in a clear way, except for Palpatine in a few scenes as well); the OT is the second movement, the error being corrected; the third (and last ?) movement is the ST, which tries to synthetize that. I get what you want to do, but I don’t think you can add it into the narratives of the OH (Original Hexalogy) further.

I like that thinking, but waiting 8 movies (with a combined runtime of ?) for some “synthetizing” seems pretty long, don’t you think?
One heavily critized point about the Prequels was indeed that Anakin falls way too fast and unbelievably easy to the Dark Side. The Clone Wars Series makes the best it can to smoothen this, but the PT on its own is lacking definetly. I think the linked YouTube video makes a pretty good case of the downfall, but this is not what was shown (or even intended to be shown?) in the PT.
