Consider Darth Vader’s story. He’s tooling along, successfully building his empire with highly polarized energy. Then at the end of Return of the Jedi, he suddenly switches polarities to save his son. Boom! He and his mentor both wind up dead, and his glorious empire goes down the tubes. All of his power gone in an instant. Now if he hadn’t made that stupid mistake — stupid from a fear-polarized perspective, that is – he’d have killed Luke and the Emperor too, making himself the most powerful person in the galaxy.

Steve, actually, Anakin achieves immortality, so he does become extremely powerful.
The question I have in regard to this theory is about the law of surrender:
The only way to truly conquer anything is to surrender to it.
According to the theory of polarity, a Darkwalker will fight and fight and become hypervigalent to every threat, consumed by fear and will never achieve ultimate power, let along peace, while a Lightwalker can achieve this easily.
Also, isn't this very reminiscent of Jungs teachings about shadow work and the male and female animus?
