It does, but to me the bigger and more important moral question is why those machines were made sentient in the first place. That is the question a science fiction story would answer first. (Again, remember that poor power droid with the ability to be tortured.)

IMO that doesn't matter at all. They are sentient, and a deviation into nuts-and-bolts technological explanation would feel out of place in SW. But SW is abt struggles for liberation. Having the heroes take up the cause of droid liberation would feel in keeping with what SW does.
