On the Endor fight, wasn't somebody complaining that there weren't enough fighters to protect the thing but the Emprorer or Vader or somebody else thought it showed a lack of faith in the destructive power and defenses of the Death Star? I mean who could ever see some lucky rebel space jock putting a torpedo down the vent tube
I don't recall but perhaps the X-Wings had some cover going in to be able to penetrate the fighter screen. Then they did deploy the foils so presumably there was some kind of atmosphere around the Death Star (albeit very thin) which would perhaps balance the two fighters again as long as they stayed close to the surface.
Just more speculation
I do appreciate your comments Ran and never got the idea they were critical or negative. Keep them coming.
