Working the PT into the OT in any capacity means having to countenance the idea that Darth Vader - the fearsome, mysterious, eminently competent, supremely dignified, and diabolically intelligent central antagonist of the Classic Trilogy - was once a whiny, petulant, lovesick, dunderhead idiot who was tricked into becoming evil.
No thanks. Best to leave the PT in the ever-receding ash heap of the past and let the passage of time efface as much of its presence from our memories as possible.
