What do you mean "Hm"? Galen's lightning has already shown to reach far beyond lethal levels and he has no reason not to end the Emperor's life. He's already expressed acceptance for his own death and his willingness to sacrifice himself for the Rebels during the lock with Sidious. It makes your "bypassing of Force defenses" theory unworkable and illogical.
The explosion goes off as Galen and Sidious's hands touch.
Sidious wasn't torturing Rahm Kota. He had no reason to do so and every reason NOT to do so given he was trying to turn Galen over to his side and torturing a man Galen saw as a mentor and who was the biggest obstacle in his path to actually turning Galen by snapping him out of the trance he'd been in.
Except as I mentioned they did touch in the game. That was the cause of the explosion in that version.
"In the novelization, it remarks that Galen Marek dropped his defenses (i.e. holding onto Palpatine)"
WHAT?!
You think the novel stating he "dropped his defenses" was referencing Galen letting go of Palpatine rather then lowering his Force defenses? This is ridiculous. I am not going to agree or negotiate with you on this. That's absolute blatant twisting of the text to suit your stance. F*ck off Ant.

Anyone else notice Ant used to not place that much emphasis on feats, emphasizing more holistic/thematic intent instead, but upon realizing Revan could be wanked to 95% of Vitiate while hindered he did a complete 180 and started putting stock in calcs?

THE MOTTO IS "IN KEK WE TRUST"
It implies nothing of the sort. He was outright overwhelmed by it. Even I don't try to claim that Galen is a peer of Sidious even though he did even better for far longer. That would be ridiculous.
