Answer: the script was written in one draft by George Lucas weeks before shooting. Luke had to rescue Han because Lucas didn't want his most marketable character out of the third movie (they were going to rescue Han anyways at the end of ESB). Luke had to fight Vader and the Empereor again to tie everything in a neat bow because Lucas didnt want to make any more Star Wars movies; he wanted to shift his focus on Howard the Duck and Ewok merchandise.
