I've always thought of force sensitivity as something anyone can develop with training, but some are naturally stronger than others (and this strength is hereditary).

The ban on marriage is a prequel idea; I don't really pay much attention to that.

I think early on force sensitivity was treated as something anyone could develop, but I think for a long while the idea has been that some people are born as force sensitives and those who are not just don't have it.

No question about that. According to the PT, Force sensitivity is all about midichlorians. If you’re born without the midichlorians, you can’t use the Force, and that’s that.
