I think Mace needs to be dead - he’s a major reason why the Republic fell and the Empire rose. He was nicer to the younger Anakin, but by the time Anakin was a Knight, Mace was an absolute dick to him.
Yes, Obi-Wan never telling Anakin he knew about Padme and his feelings for Satine, Ahsoka leaving the Order, and Yoda outright dismissing Anakin when he came to him for help are all contributing factors, but those all played into Anakin’s fear. Mace outright made Anakin angry and if he had done even one thing differently, like not leading the charge to expel Ahsoka from the Order, by talking to Anakin like someone unworthy of his time when he was appointed to the Council, and by not bringing Anakin with him to confront Palpatine so Anakin could see the treachery himself, he actively pushed Anakin to the dark side.
Yoda had to live with his failures and suffer over letting the Order fall. Mace deserved his death for his role in what happened, and it speaks volumes to Palpatine’s strength that even with Anakin interfering/assisting, he was still able to defeat the best the Jedi had to offer.
