i’ll admit it’s been a while since i’ve watched the films, but it was probably a bit more obvious with Luke, right? he wasn’t exactly hidden. he had vader’s last name and lived with vader’s family on vader’s home planet.

meanwhile leia was adopted by some rando and had her name changed to match. she probably didn’t even know she was adopted.

anyway, i will have to rewatch the OT with this in mind at some point.

In retrospect, hiding Anakin’s son on his home planet and keeping his last name wasn’t such a great plan.

  I think they were banking on Vader hating the planet so much he’d never willingly return and then later training Luke in the hopes that Vader may hesitate to kill his own kids, because Vader hesitating to kill someone is basically the only way anyone has a hope of beating him.
