OK, so I don't know if these are plot holes or what (I really hope not haha)...but any here are my questions:

1) If midi-chlorian counts are highly correlated to force sensitivity, why can't sentients induce more rapid midi-chlorian replication? Like what prevents everyone in the galaxy from being force sensitive? I read somewhere on Wookiepedia that deathly injured organisms can be given a blood transplant of another for their midi-chlorians, but no force sensitivity would be passed on. Why would no force sensitivity be passed on?

2) Why did Darth Vader continue to help the emperor when he knew Padme was dead? Wasn't Padme is only motivation for being on the dark side?

3) How does "the high ground" mean Obi-Wan will have an advantage in Episode III?

Welcome to the forum.

1. Maybe Midichlorians are linked to special genetic markers of their host....or sumthin.

2. Yeah, beheading an unarmed (un-handed) Lord of the Sith, killing younglings and the council members...doesn't leave much room for sympathy.

3. Obi-wan having the "High Ground" gave him less ground to defend...it forced Anakin to expend more energy to reach him and made him over-confident which in turn leaves him as an open target....and the chance of losing his legs in the process.....and then it was done.
