To put what I'm trying to say in more respective: Revan, Jacen, Krayt and Galen were all vastly misplaced back in the G on CV because the experts there just didn't look at things objectively, forgot context of fights after not reading them for long, or out of just hatred for the characters.
It was once thought Ventress would take a majority over Galen, Revan and Krayt, lmao. Silver was/is a far better than I could ever be as far as strictly Star Wars debating is concerned, but he was one of the biggest critics of the above 3 characters and everyone - including myself - followed his words like gospel, mainly 'cuz I knew shit about the characters.
I wasn't until guys like 'Swords, Ant, etc come along did the perception of those characters start to change and they got the proper place didn't they deserved.
