I would like the passage quoted so I can see this "implication" for myself.Especially when Lucas outright said Mace can compete against Sidious.
But Master Windu wasn’t listening. He raised his lightsaber — and Anakin knocked it aside. The unexpected blow sent the lightsaber flying … and left Mace defenseless against a new bolt of Force lightning. Chancellor Palpatine was faking! He wasn’t tired at all.Mace howled and retreated. “Power!” the Chancellor cried, and laughed. “Absolute power!”
Another wave of Force lightning struck Mace and slammed him backward, and back again, then it lifted him through the space where the window had been, high into the night sky — and then let him drop the hundreds of meters to the ground below. Anakin stared after him, horrified. “What have I done?” he whispered.
“You are fulfilling your destiny,” Palpatine replied calmly.
