Drop all droids, go with a 7pt bid. Or daredevil on padme so her arc is pointed at bad guys and a 4pt bid. Moving last with anakin is a HUGE advantage.

Ani and Obi can both pull off CLT with superb success. And it opens up a LOT more points

CLT is the way I would go, have tested it in about a dozen games now and it’s really solid

So happy for the points change. It's incredible how formerly trash upgrades can become a very very solid choice.

Counterpoint: Even with opening the points by taking away the delta 7B with those 3 Pilots you are left at 163, not enough to fit another ship worth while other than a Torrent, at that juncture id rather have the original list.

Increasing attack for both Skywalker and Obi paired with Padme all with R2s, that's an elusive list that even if any of these ships land in an arc you have multiple options to prevent and recover damage dealt. CLT is great how ever you are relying on both mods (which are limited or can be removed by opponents list) and lining up a shot that isn't always going to be there, even with experience.

If you are taking away the 7B I would look into switching out Ani for Mace giving you a list price at 144, plenty of space to add either another Aethersprite (looking at you Lumi [190 with CLT]) or an additional N1 with either Ric or Anakin at 186 with what ever else you want to customize the squad with.
