I don't like the idea of all the Jedi having blue lightsabers. It seems too tyrannical and uninclusive which is not what the Republic is about.

Well, I hadn't ever thought of it like that. What I really wanted was to show that Luke's new green lightsaber of ROTJ was a whole new age for Jedi, a symbol of the new republic and something that had never existed before.

It's not really supposed to be about uniformity but rather to give Luke's green saber that much more significance.

Well, let's keep in mind that most religions are nothing BUT about uniformity.  The blue lightsabres just show that all of the Jedi are on the same path to enlightenment (I really love the earlier idea of the Jedi and Sith seeking 2 different ends of the Force and not being connected to any governments).
