Maybe the George Lucas of the late 70's would have done it that way, but not the George Lucas of 1999-2000.
No, if George Lucas did Gundam it would go something like this...

aboard the White Base...
AMURO: Bright-o Kan-cho, General Revil was talking about Newtypes, what exactly are "Newtypes"?
BRIGHT: Newtypes are humans with special sensory powers. That happens because they are symbionts with these microscopic creatures called 'midichlorians', who help boost psychic potential.
AMURO: Midichlorians? I don't understand.
BRIGHT: Don't worry, young Amuro, you will.

Later, Amuro blasting Zeons in his Gundam
AMURO: YIPEE!!!

Char's screentime would be reduced to 15 minutes of some very cool fight scenes, while Kai Shiden would be replaced by a foolish alien sidekick who would always get in the way and be a constant and annoying distraction to the story.
..there's probably more, but I really don't want to think about it.
