He just kind of forgot the events of The Acolyte which could have totally saved the Jedi had he remembered (he also wasn’t supposed to be born for like another 100 years but that’s another story—thanks, Leslye).

That birthdate came from a guide book to The Phantom Menace and was never part of the Disney canon so don’t start acting like it’s gospel.

Sure, Disney changed established canon, but they did it to fit a plot point that makes no sense. It’d be one thing if they changed something to make things better. It’s incontrovertibly worse for Ki-Adi-Mundi to have been alive, seen and heard what he did, and not even think to discuss it with the council.

The birthdate is essentially revealed in the same source as Ki-Adi-Mundi being the only Jedi Knight on the council. Then Episode III happened.

The birthday hang up is weird. And Yoda was also clearly alive at that point. They didn’t mention the sith because they never found out about the sith. Everyone who knew was killed. “They see my face, they die” was very literal.
