Tbh at this point with the way things are going for Rebels, I doubt the writers are caring about consistenty with one's power, just wanting to instead tell a story.

In this issue Vader stole a memory crystal from Jocasta Nu, which revealed the names/locations/birthdates of force-sensitive children that were going to be recruited by the Jedi Order before the Republic fell:

I was somewhat surprised by the Musafarian child, myself... Not just surprised that a force-sensitive exists on such a world, but surprised that Vader or Palpatine hadn't yet sensed/found him, given all the dealings they've had there...

well now remember that Anakin and Sidious referred to the location as the Mustafar "system" meaning there could be more than one planet in that area with that name otherwise why not just call it a planet right?
Seeing Ezra Bridger would have been cool but I suppose he probably wasn't born yet when this list was compiled. He was born on the day Order-66 was issued iirc.

-Vader creates his 'classic' lightsaber.
-Sheev makes Vader's rank/status within the Imperial hierarchy official... Though Tarkin was still intentionally left out of Vader's 'jurisdiction'.
-Vader cleans house.

Sheev still explicitly told Vader that Tarkin was off-limits... Which coincides with what we already knew: Vader commands ALL within the Empire, except for Tarkin.

Still nice, again I hate the Inquisitor. Though I can't say I really like how they are doing Vader character wise, killing officers just because of some conspiracy.
I was just glad they were consistent about Tarkin's role. I mean, Palpatine essentially told Vader that he could kill *anyone* in the Empire, except Tarkin(because he's too much of an asset.) And as you mentioned: this was before Tarkin had attained his Grand Moff status.
I'm not in love with his depiction thus far either.
I keep reminding myself that this series is set just a few weeks/months after RotS, so this is a very young/immature/emotional Vader, who is still trying to prove himself to everyone around him -- he's still a kid, ffs.
...So I'm trying to give his characterization the benefit of the doubt in that regard.

I mean that's all well and good if it's shortly after Mustafar, but there could be better ways of getting his point across. I dunno, maybe its Legends creeping up where he still has issues, it just wasn't so on the nose.

Funny thing is Tarkin might know who Vader really is given his history with Anakin in TCW. I think he's smart enough to figure it out eventually. It most be tormenting to Vader not being able to kill him.

He figures it out in the Tarkin novel. And I doubt Vader would care. Maybe at this time (shortly after RotS) he might, but it seems the two of them have a mutual respect for one another.
