Speaking of “She’ll never be a Jedi”, is it possible to add “any longer” to that? Because in the movie she already is a Jedi.
I assumed he meant she wouldn’t ever reach her full Jedi knight status and potential. Like when Yoda tells Luke that he has to fight Vader to cement himself as a Jedi.
Besides as Hal said “She’ll never be a Jedi” retroactively contributes to the payoff of the “I’m a Jedi” line change.
