Why not add some prominent Trade Federation Battleships to the EPVI fleet at
Endor, while we're at it? And some AT-TE's to the Hoth landing? The trench run
is fine as it stands, ship-wise. They can tweak the maneuvers, but the addition
of new ships to the central action would serve no artistic purpose and would
only be yet another example of art-as-slave-to-marketing.
It would be lame. Not as lame as Greedo-shoots-first, but lame.
