I dunno.... some of the theories behind it kinda make too much sense... but I dunno

If that truly was his plan, I actually would think it would have been worth making jarjar THAT bad in the first movie.

And if it was the plan, then him just backing that off instead of sticking with it made it a sorta unredeemable thing. IF that theory had gone through, you could have looked back at movie 1 jarjar as some hardcore troll with a great payoff. Now looking back it just is a sucky character that pads screentime in the most obnoxious way.
