Is the fact that he is a Jedi not explanation enough?

That was probably the original intent, but it would have been good to give fans an "oh, that's why!" experience.
To me, the prequels should have really been nothing but one big "oh, that's why!" with some sympathetic protagonists, a single threatening antagonist and action sequences spacing them out.

That sounds to me like something that falls into the "Just because we can, doesn't mean we should" category.
