He's the one that went to fight it alone, the one who held them at bay for 300 years, the real question is why have anybody else be responsible for their defeat?
Because the idea of one man singlehandedly toppling an empire like that would require the writer to be a fanboy of epic proportions and an all around hack. 😬

IIRC Vaders the only guy who killed the Emperor in that movie. Luke sure as shit wasn't that effective.
Vader singlehandedly toppled an EmpireEmperor if we're talking about literal action. But that decision was the culmination of a series of decisions and events; suffice it to say that Vader would not nor could not have done so without Luke. Likewise, it required the heroics of Lando Calrissian, Wedge Antilles, Admiral Ackbar, etc. to destroy the Death Star, as well as Han Solo and Leia among others to disable the generator. There were many people who directly contributed to the victory at Endor.
I doubt Beefy was thinking that Revan would just walk in there alone and casually off the guy. Nor would it just happen. I'm reasonably certain there would be 'a series of decisions and events' leading up to it.
Really what he was getting at is that Revan ****ing bled to fight the Emperor. He deserves to be the person to finish off the man he's been fighting for 300 years.
And he can do that without being the one to pull the trigger. Yoda and Obi-Wan both died before their plot came to fruition. The saga is rife with examples such as these, as is the real world. FDR died before seeing the end of the Second World War, despite spending years and countless lives fighting the likes of Hitler. Why should Revan be some sort of cosmic exception?
The point that BioWare is trying to get at, it seems, is that this shit is bigger than Revan.
