Dark transfer is a technique defying the will of The Force. It may not be direct midi-chlorian manipulation. However, your actions do indirectly defy its will. Therefore, we can call it:
Inferior midi-chlorian manipulation. Unlike Plagueis who delved even deeper into the study of The Force.

Not directly. But indirectly. Because we witness characters who possess the power to influence the spiritual/metaphysical/energetic aspects of the universe.
