1) So why didn't Obi-Wan need have to have a lifesupport suit after mustafar then?
2) it shows how a good person can turn evil and how power corrupts and not that he was built to be evil from conception. If he was created by the sith he would have had evil in him all the time and would not have been a good man and turns Vader into a puppet. If he was destined to become evil then he would never have turned back to the good side in ROTJ. The fact that he was only manipulated and not created to be a Sith displays why Luke can sense that there was still good in him and that because it was only manipulation that turned him he was able to save his son..
1) Obi-Wan wasn't on fire. with Anakin being on fire and wailing and moaning, it's very likely he inhaled some of that fire, which would have burned his lungs. i don't think you need a special reason to justify this. i recommend at least taking a longer look at the medical science around this kind of situation before you decide to drastically change the film.
2) Being created by Darth Plagueis doesn't necessitate that Anakin was "built to be evil" or fundamentally "created to be Sith." there's no reason to think Plagueis had any more control over his creation than Frankenstein did over his monster.
i imagine that all Plagueis did was what we were told. he manipulated the midichlorians to create life. perhaps that was all he wanted to do and it was a happy accident that Anakin was so powerful, or perhaps he wanted to create a being very powerful in the Force. if the latter, then i'm sure he intended to train the boy-creature as a Sith, but none of this means the boy is now naturally evil, any more than any other lifeform.
i also imagine that Palpatine didn't know about this experiment until after he killed Plagueis, which why he didn't know about his whereabouts. and a random slave girl on some backwater Outer Rim world sounds like the perfect place to conduct an experiment like this in a natural environment.
now, i'm not in support of keeping the midichlorian talk, or this hinted at backstory. i'm just saying that the reason you gave doesn't follow from what we know.
3) as far as the prequel effort goes, i have only one request. be mindful of the canon and the fact that the canon for this era is STILL being built.
a good example of that is with ADM including the Shaak Ti deleted scene. for anyone looking for fanedits that stay within canon this edit is no longer viable, because now we know Shaak Ti's fate from The Force Unleashed.
so i'd oppose major things like making Naboo Alderaan. maybe George should have gone that route in the beginning, and i wish he had. but he didn't, and what good does trying to erase Naboo from the movies serve when the cartoon show and any other source is going to recognize Naboo? you want the movies to fit in with the rest of the material, not be jarringly out of step.
the thing with removing 3P0 until RotS is that, we can still think that Anakin made him if we want, if it ever comes up again or is important, because you're not contradicting it, you're just not noting it or drawing any attention to it, so one is free to ignore it if they wish. IMO, that's the right way to go about an edit like this.
your ANH was an excellent job because you wanted to preserve what was there and smooth the rough edges. you should do the same with the prequels. if you try to drastically alter things, imo, your edit will fall flat and be rejected because it'll be too divergent.
good luck to you in your efforts.
