Well, I mean.. you saw Vader's skeleton outlined by the lightening. It may have been 'unfocused' but it was clearly causing serious problems since we could see his freaking skull.. 

That, for me, has always been one of the coolest moments in ROTJ

Also, I just realized that his line about how nothing can stop him from dying now is actually remarkably well tied in to his motivations in ROTS. Not bad.

I've never really been super-hung-up on things like Obi-wan stretching the truth or lying, but I suppose you could make the change. OT Obi has been a liar ever since Vader turned out to be Luke's father, and that's fine. Saying inaccurate things like "The" is alright too; it's not like you can really fix the lack of Qui-Gon mentions later in Yoda's hut.

But yes, probably doable.

Asperger's is a syndrome, not an insult. On the internets, though, it's often used as a way to point out someone's unacceptable inability to understand irony, hyperbole, or priorities and degrees. Ludicrous behavior like that is what is meant by Asperger's (when used on the internet), not so much an actual claim about a disorder only a psychologist can diagnose.

While this may be true in some corners of the internet, that doesn't make it right, nor does it make it acceptable here. I am no expert on the rules here and not a moderator anyway, so obviously that's a matter for the mods to decide.

However, I will say that just because many people consider it acceptable doesn't mean that they should.
