I don’t think so. Attack of the Clones really illustrates how different characters are unable to live up to their own standards and often compromise themselves and their principles.

Examples:

Obi-Wan scolds Anakin for losing his lightsaber during the air speeder chase. He loses his lightsaber during his fight with Jango on Kamino.

Mace tells Palpatine they’re the keepers of the peace and not soliders. He cuts Jango’s head off.

Padme doing the same illustrates further how she fell in love with the wrong person but she doesn’t know it until later. However she still holds onto the belief there’s good in him when he completely succumbs and this trait carries over to Luke.
