*Sighs and resists urge to whap Obi-Wan for constantly taking all blame on himself and for having turned cynical and self-delusional about certain truths in his old age, because he has such a sucky life I'd feel like a kitten-drowner for whapping him. Whaps Qui-Gon instead for leaving him with such a mess to clean up, dangit!*
I love the detail in this, especially about how Anakin intuits everything so effortlessly that it makes it next to impossible for him to sit down and actually learn things like a normal human (or otherwise sentient) being would. It's not a route I went, but I can certainly understand it. Has parallels with the idea that a purely telepathic race would have no way and no need to communicate verbally, and so makes all kinds of sense to me.
