ingenstans alls
Som upphovsman till Machete Order skrev efter utgivandet av Star Wars VII: Kraftvakten :
The point of Machete Order is not, and has never been, ignoring Episode I because it's bad. It's been about skipping it because it's not relevant to Luke's journey. Episodes II and III are, because we see how his father falls to the Dark Side, and we see elements of his path that are mirroring his father's.

Med andra ord, Machete Order var tänkt att berätta Luke resa på bästa möjliga sätt, utan att förstöra några dramatiska avslöjanden i förväg och fortfarande hålla den dramatiska slutsatsen på plats.Clone Wars, Episode I, Rogue Squadron, Young Han Solo, The Adventures of Yoda, Boba Fett's Big Day, and whatever other movies come out that aren't part of the numerical "Episode" structure, can all pretty much be viewed in any order, as supplemental material outside of the "main saga" which I suggest viewing in the above order. Before watching any of those movies, you just say "this takes place between X and Y" and you're done.
Rogue One är inte en del av Lukas resa och är därför inte en del av Machete Order.
Blogginlägget som jag länkade till har uppdaterats till inkludera Rogue One :
In my opinion, it doesn't matter that Rogue One takes place right before A New Hope. The purpose of Machete Order was and always will be to refocus the story of the Original and Prequel Trilogies to be about Luke's journey. Episodes II and III aren't included for all their mythos and world-building, they're included because Anakin's fall is directly relevant to Luke's path.
