Sorry it was too good not to say. But that map does seem strange, I have seen another somewhere but not sure if its still Canon..
I don’t blame you at all. This was a dense episode, which is why it was so awesome.

Based on what we saw in TCW, Jabba is one of the five (?) members of the Hutt Council, with a stranglehold on hyperspace lanes that were critical to both the Republic and the CIS during the Clone Wars. Dooku wouldn’t have sullied himself with dealing (albeit duplicitously) with some low-level boss.
Maybe my “read” is mistaken, but I got the impression that he was part of the highest echelon of the Hutt power hierarchy.

Unless, since Luke, Leia and the gang and the rebels defeated the empire, the Hutt's feared some sort of retribution and the return of the Skywalkers to tatooine...sort of laid low, let Bib be a figure head for a while and see what happens?

I like that. Let Bib take the fall in case the New Republic came a-knockin’.
But I still can’t help but think the Hutt Cartel wasn’t terribly threatened by this fledging, disorganized galactic government trying to pull itself together.
Honestly, the NR had a lot bigger fish to fry than giving the Hutts comeuppance for how Jabba treated Han, Leia and Luke.

I hear you as well,but maybe if Word is out about or rumours circulating that a Jedi helped defeat the empire after such a long time after order 66 and especially with the name Skywalker attached to it after Anakins/Vaders exploits then that might instill a little fear in an already volatile situation. Thinking of a new Jedi order possible starting as a result changes the dynamics a wee bit.

Gotcha. Maybe it wasn’t “fear” as much as “let’s take a ‘wait and see’ approach while all this dust settles.”

Not that i'm right or trying to be dogmatic about it but that was my first thought

I think it makes sense.
I still have doubts that the Cartel would let a boob like Bib run Jabba’s whole show, even as a puppet, but I still really like the idea.

...and for some reason, who is well known for this type of thing? Who would fill the huge power vaccuum from Vader and Palps? Who is running the Hutts?...Ahsoka asked a question in Mandalorian...."Where is Thrawn?"

I wonder how many pacemakers had to be recalibrated when Garza first introduced herself to Boba?..lol
Thank god I didn’t have one! This was one of my first movie crushes!
I got the idea that Bib didn't try to run things like a crime boss. He just took over the palace & laid low, like a small king on a small hill.
Boba is the first one to try to come in & consolidate power, & that's why he's suddenly on everyone's radar.

More importantly was Boba not tempted to set the Sprinklers off! Lol
