My issue is I'd rather have seen them start with the iconic element and work their way down. START with Jedi. The Top Down approach, like Exalted does. It's a lot easier to downplay things if you want a different sort of campaign than it is to upgrade them to do Jedi.
And when you design the next iteration of Star Wars RPG, you're very welcome to do it in the "correct" order. I, for one, have never been particular fond of Jedi (as more than backdrop mythology) and I'm quite happy that the "rest" of the setting (as in, everyone who isn't that one jedi who's still around) get some attention for a change.
I'm not getting into why I like Star Wars but don't particular care about Jedi, because you've already established that you don't believe that's possible. Just suffice it to say: Not everyone are you.
