Imperialscum, never try to convince believers: believers are gonna believe one faith, non-believers believe several faiths and look from as may POVs as it's possible.

BTW, considering Nellith I always (since I became aware of this unrealized arc) felt that had George gone with this version it would've been boring to watch 3 movies Luke searching for his sister, WHILE CONFRONTING THE EMPEROR ONLY IN EPISODE 9 and having the Grand Spacebattle ALSO ONLY IN THE LAST INSTALLMENT. Though all this may sound like a futile theorizing, if you have rich imagination, writing and directing skills, you can extract everything possible from potential possibilities, treasured in a story, after all; so every way of interpreting and realizing is appropriate - with or without Nellith. It's just the fanboys that always act like kids, playing more monarchistic behavior than the monarch himself does :-)
