Seriously, it's an interesting idea. I always thought the way it was done was a little weird in both movies. In ANH, it's like the big laser is formed from all the small ones and pushed out by some invisible force or something, and in ROTJ, it looks like the small ones serve no purpose because the big laser comes out of the middle anyway.
