I know. But back when Lucas first changed it, “Han shot first” was the slogan people used. It’s short, as slogans should be. What else would you use? “Greedo never shot”? “Only Han shot”? Those don’t sound as good, at least to me. “Han shot first” can also mean that Greedo never got to fire his gun, because Han was quicker. So I’ll stick with that.
I don’t think that’s correct English. And it kind of was self-defense, as Greedo was a bounty hunter for Jabba who didn’t exactly wanted to invite Han for some tea and biscuits.

Han shot only. It’s supposed to show how cold of a bastard Han is. Portraying it as self-defense undercuts that.
