Okay, I’ve got a new test. Let me know if you think “Final lesson” should be removed in order to make things less congested:

I really do think the concept that Luke was avoiding Ben’s fate needs to stay in some way like this. It explains so many of his vague lines in TLJ: “This is not going to go the way you think” in reference to Rey trying to save Kylo. Why is Luke so certain that Rey’s vision of her redeeming him is wrong? “It didn’t scare me enough then. It does now.” Why exactly does this raw, untamed power make him weary? And later, “I came to face him, Leia. And I can’t save him.” Again, why is Luke so incredibly certain that Kylo is beyond redemption? The only way any of this makes sense is if he saw Ben being on the Sith throne was a certainty on that fateful night. Palpatine doesn’t foresee Vader attacking him because the bond between a father and son is foreign to him. Similarly, he doesn’t expect Ben and Rey to be able to resist the destinies he’s fashioned for them because sharing the same power and having romantic attraction for each other is foreign to him. I think all of this lines up perfectly.
