Because, why not?
Chekhov's gun.
Yes, I should have said "supposed plot hole" the fact that the death star has a weakness could easily just be down to Imperial incompetence or bad planning!
No one who didn't use the Force made the shot, and we know prideful, Force-chokable Imperials like Motti didn't take that sort of thing seriously. Just classic hubris, really.
His voice sounds so weird in those early videos.
I remember in Legends continuity that particular ventilation shaft wasn't even part of the schematics, it was only added during construction due to the belief that given how powerful the weapon is, a few more ventilation shafts couldn't possibly be a bad idea.
I don't think you understand what plot hole means.
There was no plot hole regarding the stealing of the Death Star plans.
To be absolutely clear. I meant 'supposed' plot hole, and it isn't one I personally ever thought was a plot hole, but some people did, namely that the Empire building a giant moon sized battle station capable of destroying planets yet it's vulnerable to a lucky shot in the right spot. Again, I don't think this is a plot hole, I think it's a bit of bad planning in a huge construction project and/or Imperial hubris, and not something anyone ever thought could be exploited. But some people did have an issue with it, and clearly some of those involved in Rogue One felt it needed to be addressed and so they put in there that Galen Erso deliberately created the weakness.
