People being in the orbit of that planet - not people that were thousands of lightyears away. Also notice that the destruction of Malachor V didn't seem to have killed people like Malak, Revan himself and the Dark Jedi / Sith since many of them are still alive after the Mandalorian Wars and they were at the orbit of Malachor as far as we know.
Did you ever see ancient Jedi being able to sense the feelings of a single other Jedi through half of the Galaxy (which at least Yoda and maybe Mace too were doing in AotC when Anakin killed the Tusken) ? I didn't...

Actually, I have a slight theory about that. The Ancient Sith and Jedi seem to be affected when they are in close proximity to a tragic disaster. It seems to have "dispersed" over four thousand years.
I'd like to point out that the jedi of the PT era have shown force attunement much lower than that... notice that when the jedi felt Anakin's pain they were meditating...
But in combat, they've shown lack of awareness and been taken by surprise. If they were so in tune as you suggest, Nai, Order 66 would have been mostly a failure.
Maybe later I'll take an in-depth look into your theory... I read part of it, but I think you're mistaken on a few thigns:
- For one, you claim that the PT jedi have more powers and thus must be better. This fails to address the very idea that there are.... MORE PT jedi era sources than there are older jedi sources! If I have three pieces of art from one time period and fifty from another, is the latter period more artistic? Hell no! This is poor sampling!
- You've established "facts" in your theory. A theory may contain facts, but it cannot lead up TO facts. You are theorizing. All conclusions are just that: theories.
A few other things...
CW Cartoon? Gay. I like how you accept that as canon and disagree with other things that aren't nearly as inconsistant with the saga. Nice.
Second, Obi-Wan felt the death of Alderaan. He didn't particularly do much more than furl an eyebrow.
Billions felt the deaths over Malachor. It is reputed to have echoed across the galaxy, affecting all.
Inconsistantcy much?
