Vader is not the top living Jedi in any way, and he knows it:
1) He defers to the emperor (my master) quite clearly.
2) It is unknown who would have won the vader-obiwan fight if obiwan had
not given up the fight to enter this higher plane he is in.  If obiwan
could have beaten vader, then Yoda could too.

If the Other was on the cloud city, and yoda could not see the fate of those
there when luke left, then they should have had some concern that all their
eggs were in one basket.  This gives support to the idea that the other
is not from the group of central characters, but it could also be Lando,
who the ROTJ trailer says plays a big part in the third movie.

Remember:  Yoda thought Luke was too old for Jedi Training and accepted him
because he had already learned from ob1 and the rebels.
