So you’re ignoring ROTJ Luke and Leia but defending your position with a ROTJ script and novel.
I’ve already conceded that the ROTJ timeline – particularly the tripe about Leia being Luke’s brother and the Emperor knowing that Luke is Vader’s son – is contrived.
I’m not defending my position – I’m just explaining that the TESB has a plausible story. Granted, you make a good point that the evidence that Luke was brought to Tatooine by Obi Wan and given to his brother is out of the ROTJ script, but even without that, it’s still perfectly plausible: Luke grew up on Tatooine under adoptive parents that may or may not have been his blood relatives. Obi Wan took up residence nearby to watch over Luke.
The “watching over” part is out of the original “Star Wars” radio drama and might be referenced in the novel. I could be wrong about the novel part, as my memory is sketchy on that. Either way, the radio dramas are/were considered original G-canon.
Furthermore, if you are going to allow scripts and novels in order to defend your position, you better check those for TFA as well.
My critiques of TFA are of stuff I saw on the screen. I don’t need any more supporting documentation because I’m referring to what was presented on screen. In our discussion of Luke’s background and the TESB timeline, a lot of the backstory is not stated on screen and left open, so it’s helpful to go to supporting canon documentation to fill in those gaps.
Even so, in my defense, I was the one who went to the now-canonical “Before the Awakening” book (or whatever it’s called) to offer up the story about how Rey found a flight simulator to explain how she can fly the MF.
Yeah, you’re quite consistent.
