One thing that I really like about this movie is that it confirms this lorecrafting that I did in early 2018

While I didn’t think they’d go the Palpatine angle, they still had the core of the idea for this which makes a lot of sense out of the Sith’s nonsense rule of two.

I’m sure it’s not a particularly popular aspect of the movie with vast swaths of the fanbase, such as those who liked Anakin as the actual chosen one and those who disliked bringing back Palpatine. That probably accounts for most people, actually. But I liked it.
