      “Tons”

      The galactic empire (and the republic before it) spanned billions of inhabited star systems. If each world was billions or trillions of inhabitants that means the galactic population is 1018 or more people. There were only ~10,000 Jedi at their peak. The chances of any galactic citizen seeing a Jedi, unless they lived on Coruscant near the temple, are vanishingly small. They were mythical beings to almost everyone.

        If you want to play that way, technically using a 2000lb ton, you’d only need 20-30 Jedi for there to be “Tons”

          I was looking for this kind of comment ready to make one if there was none. Thanks for absolving me of the duty.
