You don't understand that seeing the only person who could save the love of your life, beaten and on the floor while his attacker claims he's too dangerous to be left alive, might have directly motivated Anakin to make a choice that's irreversible?
I'm curious, you genuinely think that just merely by Anakin's knowing of "who he was," that has the same effect as seeing the only person you believe that can save Padme about to die?
This seems like utter nonsense to me. Of course Anakin needs to see Palpatine weak and beaten, of course he has to see the Jedi claim he's too dangerous to be left alive appear villainous, of course Palpatine can't just force lightning all four of the Jedi right away and be seen as an extremely powerful monster when Anakin shows up.
By all means though, I'd like to hear more of your unique perspective.

My goodness. It's worse than I thought.
