Han has said as much himself. 'Too much Vader' in his son, but the words never felt right in his mind when he thought them and they didn't sound right when he said them out loud.
So it begs the question, why would he say it. Maybe it's because Han doesn't like to admit that he sees a lot more of himself in the darkness of the younger Solo than he's comfortable with. The hair-trigger temper, the sudden and drastic shifts of mood - don't such actions ring more true to a particular cocky smuggler than the cold fury of Darth Vader?
Destiny might have been doing a young Han Solo a favor when he was born unable to manipulate the force.
"What name do you mean?" He murmurs, as his eyes drift over a few of the more important displays. By the time you got into hyperspace, you were usually in the clear ... but he always stayed in the cockpit for the first few minutes, just to be sure.
