I think this line's mostly filler.

It's always bugged me that he said "learner" rather than "student" or "apprentice", or some such (I doubt the word "padawan" had been invented yet).

Maybe as in Learner driver?
Assuming that's not just a British term (we have red L plates on our cars to signify Learner before passing ther driving test)

Yeah, the US has learners' permits as well. And my old elementary school at one point changed its slogan to "A community of learners teaching for learning for all", so I know "learner" is a real word, but for some reason it always seemed... imprecise... in that context.

I've always wondered how these futuristic societies have all these incredible energy weapons, the products of centuries of development and gazillions of spacebucks...but not one cent was apparently spent on targeting systems. Seriously...blasters have the apparent equivalent of iron sights. The Death Star probably couldn't have *hit* anything smaller than a planet. The double-barrelled defense weapons on Hoth were nothing more than primitive ack-ack guns with really nice tracer effects.

And a bunch of teddy bears with rocks and sticks wallop an entire Imperial garrison. Talk about training...I guess they didn't teach dwarf tossing at the Academy.
