    I was thinking more along the lines of the wielder acting like a battery. No midichlorians, no saber.

      The original intent was for lightsabers to be stronger the more you could use the force. There was even going to be a training scene between Luke and Yoda explaining that.

      It was kind of shown in the prequels when Qui Gonn Jinn was burning through a blast door in the beginning of Phantom Menace.

          No it’s just a casual fan delusion from beginning to end. Kids believe stupid stuff and when those kids become adults they don’t always apply critical thought to the beliefs they held about that kid movie they liked.
