One of the things that we complain about so very often in regard to SE and the PT is the overkill of explanation:

"The Sith have a Rule of Two."

"Obi-Wan was once instructed by Yoda. Qui-Gon was his Master, but all younglings are taught by Yoda."

"The Clonetroopers were cloned by Jango Fett, who raised an unaltered clone names Boba as his son"

"The more midichlorians a Jedi has, the more Force-power he is capable of"

"You see, Anakin died just before he became Darth Vader, so that's why he is younger as a Force ghost than Obi-Wan or Yoda."

"This is my apprentice, Darth Maul. Follow him, the apprentice called Darth Maul, for he is my apprentice. His name is Darth Maul, by the way."

Lucas is so convinced of our collective idiocy, isn't he? You know, not everything in the OUT was explained to a T. And that's just fine! We can fill in the blanks, as long as what we just saw is plausible.
