This is nowhere near as bonkers as Jedi training with live lightsabers. And I don’t even mean the younglings. Even Obi Wan and Anikin sparing with live blades is insanely reckless.
I don’t know at what point in the mythos it was added, but i recall being told by someone more into the fandom that the sabers could be set to different power levels, so when sparring, rather than kill and cut they would just shock the shit out of you or burn.

It’s no wonder the prosthetic tech is so good.

Nice. I’m sure it was decided after the fact, But it’s a cool fix to the problem , so rule of cool wins.
Wasnt the training drone firing a white blaster at luke?
I’m sure this wasnt on purpose but it could confirm the retconned fact.
“Don’t worry Anikin, I’ve set my saber to ‘joy buzzer’ strength.”
“The mild nerve damage will go away in a month or so.”
The prosthetic industry funded the Jedi. It’s not something the Jedi would tell anyone.
