Did G. Lucas ever intend to portray the Jedi as a flawed institution in the prequels? Or was it added later in the EU?

I think some of it had to be intentional. The Jedi are far too arrogant and flawed in the Prequels for them to have been intended to be the moral high ground. Obviously, they’re still good guys you’re supposed to root for, but even heroes have flaws. Remember the Prequels are about the decay of democracy.
