A most puzzling lightsaber question
Today, I was watching ROTJ, during the Sarlacc part. And I noticed something. Something very strange. And as I noticed this, I thought: "wouldn't this make a great blog" So here goes

Once Luke summons his lightsaber from R2, he uses it to fight Jabba's lackeys. However, the thing that I noticed was this: The lightsaber DIDN'T ACTUALLY HURT ANYONE!. Now, it did cause a fair few people to fall to their most unpleasant death by digestion(they still have about 975 years to go), the lightsaber DID NOT ACT LIKE A LIGHTSABER SHOULD. It didn't cut anyone in half, it didn't even cut off a hand, or even a finger. It did cut through Boba's blaster carbine, but not through anyone person. It was used more like a heavy club than a "weapon fo a more civilized age." I can't understand this, and I hope that you can help me out here.

Thanks, God bless, and MTFBWY,always.
