When you first saw Star Wars did you think Luke told Ben that his father wasn't a Jedi but rather "[your answer] on a spice freighter"

Semi-related: there are only three headcanons that fix the inconsistencies between what characters know in ANH and what we saw them experience in the prequels: 1) the prequels never happened, and are some kind of weird propaganda or in-universe fiction

2) Obi-Wan and Vader did lots of drugs between movies and it fried their memories. Yoda is senile. 3) The prequels are a ST:Into Darkness style alternate reality. The timelines re-converge after Empire because reasons.

Well... yeah, but the lies don't really make sense, or advance any kind of agenda. At least he killed your father/he is your father kinda makes sense in protecting Luke. Not recognizing R2D2 and C3P0? Tht's just weird.

The weirdest bit to me is that Luke kept his last name. You'd think there's be at least one of Ani's little friends that still kept in touch with him (to get rid of parking tickets if nothing else) who would hear about a new Skywalker about.

Yeah, this is one of many, MANY signs that Lucas and friends were making it up as they went along, and didn't care much about continuity. It's not even a real flaw; sometimes I think SW works better if you just enjoy the ride and don't overthink plot details.

I mean prior to Ep. 1 I and I think most fans just assumed Anakin was not from Tattooine. I remember hearing that Owen was actually BEN's estranged brother and not Luke's real uncle

Yeah that's a line from the RotJ novelization they threw in as a quick explanation
