Star Wars design flaws
Hans, you may not want to read this. (And it doesn't even touch on the Star Wars' universe apparent lack of dialogue fixers and someone who could cast a decent child actor.)
If someone makes it into a movie then probably yes. Which means ultimately 'no' since a movie seems doubtful. The weird thing with R2's voice simulator is that everyone seems to understand him just fine without one. And maybe they like their protocol droids mincing...
I got a good chuckle out of this, actually, just because he did make some good points. Remember, Hans, only Imperial Stormtroopers are so precise, which is why they can hardly hit anything for the rest of the original trilogy, and are defeated by teddy bears.
At least he didn't make the *really* snarky point that the Jedi are obviously the product of eugenics with the midichlorians, rather than Zen mysticism (thus blowing Obi-Wan's points in Empire out of the water)...

Is someone going to do an Epic Fail Design Flaws of Old Man's War? Just asking.
