Not to mention the fact that chakra is literally made up of one's physical energy and spiritual energy, so having a strong life-force can add to that.

It's less BS so much as it is an easy mistake given the information.

Okay, I see what I did wrong there, when I said translates to, I didn't mean the words are the same, I meant that life force can literally be chakra, like how using the Bashosen uses up chakra and will eventually kill a regular ninja and that chakra is partly made of one's physical energy.

While the definition of 'life force' might be unclear in its specifics, its clear that it relates to one's vitality much like chakra, so I don't think we can say the two things are unrelated. Not to say strong life force = high chakra, but I wouldn't discount a correlation, especially since all the Uzumaki we've seen use what seem to be fairly large scale and draining techniques.
