Repost from Risa@startrek
As a millennial, the Trek VS Wars debates always confused me. Star Trek is philosophy and political science class in a scifi, flavor of the week format. And Star Wars is fantasy in a science fiction setting. Why can’t we all just love them for what they are?
Here we see Deeana Troi poking fun at how quickly a couple retcons about family and the force sort of ruin the first half of a New Hope. If Luke could call out to Leia at the end of ESB then how did Vader not know here?
Presumably she would have been taught to shield her force sensitivity? That’s not an uncommon thing to do in the SW universe.
If she was taught from birth/childhood, hiding it would be extremely natural.
