Should it, thought? If you rephrase that, to "it seemed more concentrated on Endor than the struggle the Rebel fleet" it seems entirely the right decision. At least in the context of the narrative of the OT, given that none of the major trilogy characters are in the rebel fleet (the only characters who have even appeared in the previous filsm are Lando - who is B-list when it comes to characters, and Wedge - who's role is little more than turning up a lot). If the OT story is the story of Han, Luke and Leia, and to a lesser extent R2 and 3PO (and I'd suggest that it is), the rebel assault is happening in the background for the most part is the correct decision. It's happening in the background for our lead characters too. Yeah, there's too much ewok, but the stories being told by our characters are Luke aboard DS2, and the rest of our heroes attempting to get the shield down. I'd worry that stronger focus on the rebel fleet will take the focus away from the story of the central characters- who, at the end of the day, are what we all loved about the OT, and what made it successful. More whizz pop in space, drawing focus away from the character stories seems an oddly PTish editorial decision.
Just my 2p, there. Feel free to ignore.
