Just saying, that’s what my approach would render as a continuing main story, albeit likely way more of them than there’ll be films that do so.

Dark Empire’s a comic, so I didn’t consider it. Also… Dark Empire is full of silly ideas that I don’t like and don’t gel with what’s around it. (Like TROS!)

My point is that while I generally haven’t liked other projects giving “Episode _” to things like Rogue One, I feel differently about this movie and presumably others to come based on my suspicion that the reason LFL aren’t has to do with marketing or branding concerns rather than my own nerdy perspective on it. Marketing-wise, maybe it’d be embarrassing to put something out called “Star Wars - Episode XVII,” but as a nerd I’d have no problem with it if the story simply goes that far.
