See, I think the other way, and that the Midichlorins were invented basically to keep canon that Anakin was birthed by the Force. Lucas needed an explanation for it and here we are.
And let's not forget that Lucas invented all this. Pretty much what he makes up is/was canon. You can't pick and choose what you want to take from him if you're going to be that strict about it.
The nature of the Force is whatever Star Wars decides to tell us it is. It's their animal. Keeping yourself pigeonholed into what they have already established may end up with disappointment (see: Midichlorins).
