What I mean is that, according to this view of the prophecy, all his actions prior to the end of RotJ are, well, completely left out of the balance, so to speak. It's not a matter of a comparatively small thing supposedly balancing out a ton of crimes. Rather, it's a matter of the prophecy having far less relevancy than people assumed, and predicting one specific action while overlooking everything else.
So the only thing that is a "balance achievement" is the moment when Anakin/Vader takes out the Sith Lord.

"..the one to bring balance to the force"

I was under the impression it was widely accepted that Anakin brought balance to the force...

Actually, the most recent book revealed a solid answer to the prophecy.

Is that really as canon as the movies?

As canon as Han saying the Death Star was too big to be a space station...

There are certainly some inconsistencies, but very few outright contradictions.

"Balance to the Force" is a numbers game. The key is in a comment by Yoda at the end of Ep. 1.

But Obi Wan said Anakin was prophecied to destroy the Sith "not join them!" And he did. Eventually. *NM*

Technically, going strictly by the films, that could have been supposition rather than quotation. *NM*

I still think the bringing balance refers to what happens AFTER ROTJ

This will sound offensive, sorry, but that sounds incredibly dumb.

What if I had said Christians instead of Americans? Then you'd have the comparison you favor. *NM*

No I wouldn't, I'm frankly confused as to why you think I would favour that more

Not ideal maybe, but more an organization of people than a nation of people.

I'm not overlooking it. I just don't view the moment as one of "balance achievement".

No, I do. You probably read my tangent about my disagreement with Lucas about Vader's redemption.

The concept of evil in SW (like in WOT) is Zoroastrian, not Taoist

The problem with Star Wars is that smart people analyze it, but... it's pretty simplistic
