I think all the original 6 have value. IV to VI are essentially a fantasy hero story in space while I to III are Annakin’s journey for intended hero to villain.
The pair complements each other too since they explain the reasoning of each other. Luke losing an arm, and then noticing Vader’s prosthetics of what he was becoming, Luke besting Vader in a cave illusion and then the mask being himself was the story telling us that he was making a mistake. Going in sheer power and relying on rage would earn him victory but he would end up just like Vader did. It would still make you question why Ben Kenobi just let him be for years even though the guy was their only hope.
Then the episodes I to III come out and it’s Annakin’s turn to prove that. Without a proper childhood and away from his family, Annakin becomes obsessed with Padme, his position and the prophecy - which wrre all he had. He doesn’t develop the values Luke did. Luke loves his family, loves people and loves the world around him all because he grew as a normal farmboy and in turn naturally strived to be heroic like any kid does. In turn these movies justify why it’s so important to have a normal background, why you can’t artificially make a hero and why you can’t rush a prophecy.
I basically don’t question the trope of random nobodies becoming heroes because of that.
