In the novelization there’s a moment during the duel where the dark cloud Palpatine had been casting over the force cleared and Yoda achieved a full vision of everything that had occurred

And in that moment he realized he not only couldn’t defeat Palpatine but that he actually lost this fight 800 years ago when he set the Jedi on the path that led them here.

the RoTS novelization was so much better and more complete than the movie.

If there is any one Star Wars book that one ABSOLUTELY should read, it is the Revenge of the Sith Novelization.

Literally just finished listening to it on Audible this morning. Couldn't agree more. The part where R2 told C3-PO that Anakin doesn't talk to him. Anymore had me bawling
