It sort of made sense within the Star Wars Universe where it seemed pretty clear that Imperial Engineers were...well, not all that good.
"Behold the Death Star! The most fearsome Battle-Station the Galaxy has ever known! But if I were you I would be careful with that little hole there. You really dont want anything getting in there.....that would be bad."
"Behold the Tie Fighter! A fast, agile fighter to strike fear into the heart of their enemies! What? No, it doesnt have shields. They are inexpensive and easily stackable so you can have lots and lots of them. No, they're not particularly good."
"Behold the Fearsome Star Destroyer! The backbone of the Imperial Fleet's mighty arsenal! But you might want to be careful with those enormous and fragile-looking domes that are precariously bolted onto what appears to be some pretty rickety looking scaffolding. Yeah, if anything happens to those preposterously fragile bastards you're gonna have a bad time."
Where did we find these guys?
