I haven't seen Q2's edit yet, so I can't comment on that, but referring to the original films, I agree that the Jedi are stupid for not sensing the dark side of the Force all over Palpatine. He's an obvious villain to people without that power; for people who can sense that kind of thing to not immediately recognize that he's the Sith Lord - when their whole lives have been spent in training for that very thing - it's beyond ridiculous.
When Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan first meet Palpatine on the landing platform halfway through TPM, they should have instantly captured him or cut him in half, and that would have been the end of it.
