One theory could be non-benders may actually just be "extremely weak" benders. It could be that their chi is partially blocked or doesn't develop fully during youth. If this was the cause of non-bending, then maybe the energybender might be able to correct it. So not so much giving bending, but repairing/enhancing it. One could go further and say that weaker/average benders are also partially effected and that energybending could make them stronger (skill is seperate).

This could also open up doors where a child of a airbender and waterbender could be enhanced by an energybender. Maybe airbending genes reduce waterbending ability and airbender could be removed to make a better waterbender. Maybe even the possibility of bending both water and air.

Lots of possibilities could occur with Avatar Korra giving bending back to the 100s of benders that had bending taken away by Amon.
