It's still a bullshit excuse because Plagueis's power doesn't work like that. Clearly he could use it to prevent people from dying of old age or natural causes, but not from getting killed. If he could have used it to resurrect himself after Palpatine killed him, he would have. So Palpatine shouldn't be able to use that power to resurrect himself after Vader killed him. And especially not given how he died. Thrown into the reactor of the Death Star, which then exploded. Even if he survived the explosion somehow, he'd be stranded in the vacuum of space.
