You know the fella who quoted Yoda's "judge me by my size do you?" - sorry, I didn't register who it was who said it - is that not simply a variant on "your eyes can deceive you, don't trust them"? And I think the person who said that used a ightsbare quite a bit.
Does not compare. Obi-Wan was depicted with a lightsaber from day one, while Yoda wasn't, eeven though he could have been.
If you deny the prequels (which is pretty outlandish, a bit like those three monkeys with their hands over their eyes, mouth and ears) then by extension you have to deny The Clone Wars - and, I imagine, anything else that doesn't meet your specific standards of what Star Wars is and should be (again, pretty outlandish).
So, what? Are you saying that even if you don't like the PT, you have to accept it as canon? Well, to hell with that. I have a free will and I can choose to regard or disregard whatever the hell I feel like regarding/disregarding.
Funny, though, how some will practically give themselves a hernia pointing out how "flawed" the more recent parts of the Star Wars story are while completely ignoring how your limb can be severed by a lightsabre and yet still bleed. "Sigh" indeed.
Some, but not all. Stop painting all OOT fans with the same brush.
