Hmmm…honestly, I think I prefer it without the sound. Just like how the music drops out at that point, I think the line has more weight when there’s nothing to distract from it. Obviously, that comes with the huge caveat that the original edit can be made flawless; barring that, I think the lightsaber sound is a clever band-aid over it.

That’s basically it - it disguises the slight hum on the phoneme mix that can’t be removed.

That said, I agree with oviniboy that it doesn’t quite sound organic to the scene yet. I think it needs more bass maybe? Just something to give it more “oomph.”

I’m happy to make my files available to anyone who wants to play around with it - it’s not that I’m unwilling to work on it myself, but just finding ten minutes to sit and produce that version was a rare crepuscular ray shining down through my current schedule of Real Life Commitments (which is also why the mix clearly wasn’t the greatest).
