** Another logic reason why Vader didn't hire Bane was due to the fact that Bane is far more ruthless than Boba and "dosen't take prisoners."

*** Could be that Anakin/Vader doesn't REMEMBER Boba. When he last saw Fett, it was as a scrappy young kid with a grudge and no fancy gear. Now? There's a heavily kitted out Mandalorian bounty hunter. Cad Bane, though? Nothing changed about him. So Anakin might have been wary both because he KNEW Bane was the same one he'd fought (and humiliated) several times, AND not trust him because Cad might remember things about him

** Despite flying X-Wings, those guys seem more like cops than soldiers. They probably don’t have the training, equipment, or numbers to get involved in a war.

** But wasn't Boba also part of his past? He tried to blow him up along with Mace Windu using the Jango helmet and took part in his father's assassination attempts against Padme?.

** ''Mandalorian'' Season 3 shows that even with beskar you can still get killed and it doesn't provide 100% protection. Both regular Mandalorians and [[spoiler:Imperial troops equipped with beskar armor]] get killed by aiming for weakpoints, particularly the throat.

** Less than half of Din's body is covered by beskar. The rest is covered by clothing. If someone can shoot him there, he can be hurt. Indeed, in episode 5 we clearly see Din wounded by his own Darksaber by accident when he strike a part of his thigh uncovered by beskar. Everyone shooting at him is hoping they can hit one of the unprotected parts of his body. We can also see in the final episode of the first season that the visors are not armored and if one can score a headshot it will likely burst right through.

** Note that in older times, banditry tended to carry a death sentence, and raiding farmers likely would result in a hanging in the American West, which is an appropriate comparison considering this is a SpaceWestern. And they weren't just stealing; it was clear they were destroying property and physically assaulting the farmers when Boba Fett was observing them in the first episode. No one seems surprised that they would have killed the Tusken village; Shand was only surprised that they would have the numbers to have pulled it off.

** Din was a bounty hunter first and foremost to help support the Covert. If they don't need him to act as a bounty hunter then he's free to do whatever he wants.

* Episode 4 has him go into more detail. His time with the Tuskens, coupled with his humiliation and suffering, made him realize that the crime lords and their violent, cruel, and ruthless ways were stupid and wasteful. More money can be made and lives saved if one didn't rule through fear, violence, torture, and murder. It is better business to be generous, magnanimous, and cooperative.

** It's also possible that it is just plain cheaper to transport materials via train rather than aircraft. Aircraft require fuel and a lot more maintenance compared with trains, and presumably a repulsor train is cheaper in the long term compared with flying.
