Why would Vader have to be “Empire”? The first Galactic Empire is only declared at the very end. Vader (which ever version, pre suit or Lord or whatever) can still be Sith - which is the opposite or counter to GLK Jedi.

No.
Kenobi is the Galactic Republic Legend.
This means his counterpoint will be Seperatist or Empire.
We have a Sith GL already.
Furthermore:
"I have brought peace, justice, freedom, and security to my new Empire."

The Galactic Republic becomes the Empire so there is no true opposition. GL Darth Maul having scoundrel synergy makes more sense against Galactic Republic. The Empire did not exist until the Republic became the Empire...

It is not going to be Maul.

Among other things, next GL will most likely require Malevolence and Maul doesn't fit there.
