You're not rationalizing anything they pretty much spell that out in the movies.

That and everyone seems to underestimate how much effort the empire had been putting in to hunt down remaining Jedi. Even saying the word Jedi was enough to be thrown into an interrogation cell and be subjected to who knows what kind of torture. When there's that much fear around something it can fade into memory within a single generation.
