Refer to the second comment by Martin, which is what I'm basing this stance off, which is consistent with my emails between authors regarding past quotes.
If we're being intellectually honest here, which I think we always should be when debating, I think it's clear that such a reprint isn't changing my point, BTW.
Then again, such a vague and ambiguous quote is rendered useless regardless when considering the Son and Abeloth are also in the galaxy.
For the record, I'm feeling hostility here, although I'm not sure why.

A comment which literally just says that it was the authorial intent of the author when it was written. He makes no reference to time being a derogatory factor in the validity of such a statement.
As always, Chee's statement stands. Only a direct retcon by a newer source or a newer edition of the same source can invalidate such a statement and there is no contradiction here.
Technically no, Mortis places the Son in an area that is not considered a part of the galaxy. That's made fairly obvious in the episode. Abeloth gets a similar deal, as is established in FOTJ.
Luckily, Sidious' quote is far too all-encompassing to avoid this contradiction.

SF Malak being stronger than Kun isn't crazy considering the Star Forge is one of the most powerful DS nexuses ever, even Vitiate wanted it. SF also made the blade of Ajunta Pall presumably and that destroyed him considering they got their power from the Forge itself possibly even the star map which makes Malaks SF amp all the more higher scaling from Muur.

For the last time, the Star Forge feeds with dark side energy, it doesn't give it. *smh*
