Merl Tosche was a male individual and the owner of Tosche Station, a power and distribution station located outside the city of Anchorhead on Tatooine. Because Tosche rarely visited, the station was supervised by Laze Loneozner, who spent most of his time there.
for better or worse there is maybe no greater illustrator of the impulse I call "Star Wars Disease" than that a location was referred to once by name in A New Hope and never visited, zero suggestion it was ever important, all desire to go there evaporating with the introduction of the main storyline. and at some point in the last 46 years someone assigned a canonical name to the day shift manager there
despite the connotation Star Wars Disease is not a uniformly bad phenomenon. giving me information nobody could have possibly needed or asked for sometimes enriches my life! Star Wars Disease gives and it takes
Star Wars Disease gives me fond memories of Dengar's cool blue cyber-empath girlfriend and takes from me any assumption that Han Solo might have acquired any single object or biographical detail in his entire life in a normal sane unauthored way. Han Solo is not permitted to simply go to Space Target and see a tshirt he likes
most of these details were also created by Expanded Universe authors writing side stories
someone had to seriously write that not just some drive by wookiepedian. which makes it better or worse depending on how you see that
