Obi Wan has no idea of what VADER "COULD" become.

OBW knew 3 things for certain

1) Vader was closer to discovering the identity of his kids than ever
2) Vader was growing stronger
3) He was the only person left that could take out Vader thus handicapping the emperor

And yet he let him live. Plus his faith in 3rd sista not exposing the kids was still very weak, because he rushed to Tatooine to stop her

There is no competent storyteller on the planet that could allow Vader to survive going forward. Kennedy wants all girl power stories, but in her gut knows that DV and OBW are still the drawing cards. You tell the same story using only Leia and 3rd sista and Idira, and no one watches

This miniseries is reminiscent of sticking Laura Dern in command from out of nowhere in the final trilogy. Her entire story line was a Huge WTF? Oh I forgot. Female!
