[Star Wars] Why shouldn't we judge Yoda by his size?

I keep hearing people mention that Darth Vader was not anywhere *near* as powerful as his potential because a lot of him was prosthetics. These people say that Force potential is directly diminished by losing parts of your body. 

But even after losing a few limbs and being burned to a crisp, I'm fairly sure he still out-massed Yoda. And yet Yoda is one of the more powerful Force users out there. 

If you work Midi-whachacallems into it, it makes even less sense. After all, Yoda couldn't possibly contain as many midi-whachacallems as the husk of Anakin Skywalker, let alone a full-sized human like Palpatine. How is Yoda so strong with The Force while being so tiny?

The number of midichlorians do not, as popularly believed, make you strong in the Force. It measures your Force *potential*. If you have a lot of them, you're more likely to be powerful. You still have to be in tune with the Force to be powerful in it, and Yoda is very in tune. It's like that one Jedi said "You do not drink the bowl, but the soup held within."

Note that, during the battle on Mustafar, Obi-Wan was able to match Anakin Skywalker, who had a much higher midi-chlorian count, nearly move for move. Even with the Force. That's because, at that time, Obi-Wan was more in touch with the Force.
