I was never suggesting to cut Dagobah. Way too important and some of the best scenes of the film. Only that the only way it would make sense if Luke was training there between ESB and ROTJ is to remove the times when Luke questions Yoda and Obi-Wan about Vader being his father. Because if he was training with them all that time, they would’ve had that conversation awhile ago.

Basically, doing what the Spence edit did. The Yoda death scene is still there but Luke doesn’t ask him if Vader is truly his father. It also doesn’t have the Obi-Wan scene.

But that’s not the direction I’d prefer to go for an edit of my own. Because you lose great character moments there.
