Although the whole 'Sith' thing came about in the books, there is an interesting line in 'A New Hope' which kinda destroys it.

"A young Jedi named Darth Vader, who was a pupil of mine"

No mention of the Sith in episodes 4-6. Yoda doesn't seem that keen on training Luke, Obi-Wan isn't supposed to even know about Leia as seen in the following bit from Empire Strikes Back.

Obi Wan: That boy was our last hope
Yoda: No, there is another

I might have an answer to some of these.

Perhaps he’s talking about the fact he destroyed the trade federation control ship.

Obi one probably thought that Anakin would have wanted Luke to have the lightsabre when he grew up.

perhaps the reason obi one cant remember the droids is because it was around 20 years since he last seen them and he cant remember them same for Owen and Beru there even longer since they seen the droids.

As for leia that is a bit of a mess up and the same with obi one being trained by yoda.

as for "A young Jedi named Darth Vader, who was a pupil of mine" he obviously doesn’t want luke to know that vader is his father and that he went to the dark side, he would not be ready for it and besides do you think he would believe him.

yoda doesn’t seem keen to train luke because he thinks he will follow in his fathers footsteps, but has to train him because he is the last hope to restore the jedi order.

obi one does know about leia because in episode 6 when vader found out about lukes twin sister he says " obi one was wise to keep her from me, his failure is now complete"

as for the line you mention in the empire strikes back, how the hell is a dead person and a dieing green imp with know ship going to get her to come with them and train in the way of the force. and luke was partially force sensitive because of obi ones brief training.
