The problem with many of these explanations of the Force in the ST, is that they have to ignore the understanding that Yoda gave us in ESB. If we chalk up ESB Yoda to being wrong along with everything else in the PT as explained by TLJ, then it could make sense… but that’s something I don’t want to do. 😃
Because even if we do, who’s to say that in 3 movies from now we won’t get another “Well, actually… Luke and Yoda were wrong in TLJ about the Force and the Jedi and THIS is really how it is…”

We’ll never have a firm foundation if we don’t use the OT - and the ST went too far away from that foundation to be logically consistent, therefore it feels like expensive fanfic to me. 😕
