Die Idee dürfte zurückgehen auf David Brin. Der hat das 1999 in einer Reihe von Artikeln herausgearbeitet:
What's wrong (and right) with "The Phantom Menace" Lesenswert, wenn man sich für so Zeug interessiert.
"Star Wars" despots vs. "Star Trek" populists
Die wesentliche Stelle aus einem dritten Artikel:
Zitat: | An Addendum To My Critique of The Star Wars Universe
[...]
Oh, wait. I get it. Annakin was actually a secret agent spy all along! Here's the secret facts:
Vader's the one who sent the secret plans to Leia's ship! He arranged for the droids to get away, and coincidentally land just a few miles from his hidden son! (It explains why Obiwan "hid" Luke on the one planet Darth (I mean Anniken) was most familiar with in the whole universe. The same PART of that planet. It only makes sense if the two were really in cahoots!)
Remember how, a little later, Vader talks Tarkin into "letting them go so we can trace them"? Likewise, he's the only close-up witness to Obiwan disappearing, when he supposedly "killed" his master in that sword fight! (Maybe he actually helped Obiwan pull a vanishing act.) Note that the "fight" with Obiwan distracted the guards & helped let Luke get away!
But there's more! Remember how Vader "chased" Luke in that Tie fighter... which had the chief effect of turning off all the antiaircraft guns and giving the boy a clear shot to blow up the first Death Star! (From which event, Vader is conveniently the only Imperial survivor.)
Recall how in The Empire Strikes Back Vader offered to make Luke co-ruler? (Presumably it would thus be a nicer dynasty than the emperor's). Then in Jedi recall how Vader brought Luke aboard the second Death Star? Could it be because he knew the kid would irritate the emperor and get him upset enough to finally let Darth get a crack at him from behind?
I knew there had to be some reason why Vader didn't seem to detect his own daughter -- all filled with that magic force shit -- when he grabbed her arm and looked into her eyes in Episode... um... IV is it? Then he drug-interrogated her, without detecting any Force? Can there be any explanation except that he already knew?
Pah! He let them both get away deliberately! And whenever they needed guidance, there were the droids... his own special droids, assigned to help and guide his children to their destiny.
Now THERE is an explanation that could get Vader into Jedi Heaven! Maybe Obiwan, too.
But it CANNOT be the same place as Yoda!
Oh, but I forgot about the billions of people Vader helped kill. So never mind. (Too bad. It was starting to look like I could make the Star Wars Universe actually make sense. Alas, it cannot be done. Some miracles are beyond authorial skill. Sigh.)

Hm, sehr interessant. Das ganze könnte gut erklären, dass ich Star Wars i.A. lieber gesehen habe, aber auch immer Schwierigkeiten damit hatte und Star Trek eigentlich sympatischer fand.
