Ok so it's not an idea you want to run with but you can disagree in a more agreeable manner and you aren't the only person using the thread so others may want to lay some ideas down along those lines.

Yoda however is not a great warrior, he mocks the very idea that such a thing is possible.

He frequently warns Luke about being overly reliant on weapons and violence in the ESB.

Yoda says Luke must confront Vader, it's Ben who says he must kill his father not Yoda, it's Ben who gives Luke a sword lesson on day one (Yoda gives Luke a lesson in not needing weapons).

Ben is the knight, Yoda is the mystic sage who tries to teach Luke to be patient and calm.

In the PT Yoda is extremely martial and not very wise at all (the same bounty hunter clearly links both armies and yet none of the Jedi question the use of the Clones at all or follow up the investigation).

Start the PT off with Obi-Wan a fully trained Jedi partnered with Qui-Gon. He mentions being trained by Yoda and he states his intention to  train Anakin in Qui-Gon's place, there' no need to Yoda there.
