Again, all of this make sense, maybe it's just me being thrown off by the teenager face of the actor, but I still wonder how he could stop a blaster shot blind sided and then struggle so much in the last fight.
Also, the blatant lack of respect of General Hux towards him didn't help (the scene when they discuss how to retrieve the rogue trooper and the droid). Vader would have force choke the shit out of him for much less.
Maybe Episode VIII will confirm what you say and he will be a fully trained "Sith" lord packing a lot more meat.
For now I would much rather bump into him in a dark alley than his granddad.
