OOC
It's not a disagreement, it's a preference. If you have people who want to play Jedi, that's fine.
My 'issue' with Jedi is they tend to be good at more than just 'their niche' ("Overpowered" was inarticulate, I meant they tend to niche stomp on other people). By the way Jedi Professions, lightsaber Styles, and Force Powers work, they tend to diversify a lot more broadly than other Professions (non-Combat role, combat role, and whatever extra 'cheesy' goodness the Force brings).
Also, the "Jedi Nonsense". Because there is a Jedi, the GM has a tendency to want to throw 'jedi' flavored challenges into the mix...
It was a stated preference. If the group as a whole prefers to have Jedi running about I'm fine with it. Ironically, despite my first stated quibble, FFG is one of the better systems for having a mixed party of Jedi and non-Jedi.
