Keeping Vette - details?

Yep, this has been clarified in another post, and this quoted post has been edited to reflect that.

THANK you! I didn't know this thing even existed. It doesn't show up on the world map or mini map despite having all layers toggled on, and it doesn't even highlight when you mouse over it. I don't recall ever seeing any mention of this Companion Locator Terminal inside the game before.

I had already paid a ton in gifts to get Vette to level 50 after completing KOTET. I did it BECAUSE I knew I was done. I don't have a screenshot to prove it, but I specifically checked my Chapters list inside the game on this character right before accepting JUS and every single chapter to the very end was highlighted and "Grant Mission"-able.

Wiping out Vette must have been a bug for me, that's all I can think of. She was literally standing next to me, level 50, with KOTET completed, then disappeared and her bio listed her as dead. I realize based on the description of using this terminal that my actual story considers her dead and will forever more for this character, but oh well.

I guess at this point since I'm already in Chapter IX of KOTFE on my "new" Assassin, I'll continue playing him to finish it out; but this makes me much less concerned for all my alts, of which I have a level 60-70 of every advanced class.

I appreciate everyone's responses. Thank you all.

Unless there's a bug involved, you should be able to find answers to specific questions about companion choices on this post by CloudCastle:

I still don't understand why BW did this, two LI's for two-classes seems odd to have to kill one. Did something happen to the voice actors?

I would love the story writer to give an explanation as to why, and why one of these two characters out of all the original companions?

What does not make sense to me is the choice is between two Empire character companions (sith warrior and bounty hunter) should have been one Empire character companion and one Republic character companion.. Vette and Risha would have been interesting because according to Smuggler chats with Risha they were once friends.

Vette mentions Risha *by*name*, rather than Risha's mention of just "a Twi'lek".
