...Could this become the new 'flipper debate'?

I missed the Flipper Debate of 07 (and I still don't know what side I would have been on), so I'm all for this one. But then again the arm had to be changed, it was just a matter of what to change it to. The DSII doesn't have to even be hinted at in ESB.

I keep going back and forth. It'd be really neat, but completely unnecessary. I guess what really sells me on the idea now is cutting it out of the ending of RotS. After spending 20 years on building a smaller Death Star, there is still no way that they would have learned enough from building it that they would be able to build an even bigger badder one in 1/4 the time. Maybe I'm more for the idea of taking the DS construction out of RotS than I am of adding it to the post-credits of ESB...
