... it gives you a much needed idea about why the Empire is so bad and it has a great pay-off in the Yavin battle, when Biggs dies.
"The empire already starting natiolalizing commerce in the central systems"... The Empire's bad because it's socialist?? Really?
Without making this discussion overly political........
With all due respect, there is a Politics thread in the Off Topic section if you want to talk about politics in the real world (well American Politics on the whole but you could always start another thread if that one doesn't tick your boxes).
We have no idea if the Empire strictly followed any political model known on Earth.
We know it is an Autocracy and shared some aspects with the Roman Empire, The British Empire and the Third Reich but that's about it.
If you are proposing that the dialogue be changed so that the Imperials inject pro-Socialist sentiment in between their normal lines and the Rebels make anti-Socialist comments inbetween shooting stormtroopers etc. Then that would be different.
That would be a Redux idea and radical ideas are welcome.

As for powering the engines down I'm all for it.
It currently looks like Solo is going to ram the hanger bay (which is what would have happened if Bill Shatner was flying the Falcon).
