For sure, as I get further along in my writing and storytelling (only a few years in now) analyzing things like this is quite helpful, but in no way would I want to question or judge the decisions the creators like Lucas made along the way. Seeing other possibilities and having some understanding of their impacts on the story is an educational exercise for me, so no judgements here either.
