I have a question that’s been burning me up since the finale of ATLA, and while I can’t seem to find a way to ask the creators, you guys are answering questions and you seem to know quite a bit about both series. If energy bending predates the Avatar, does it not also predate bending the elements? If so, then the ability to take away someone’s bending cannot be its only use. Could the Avatar hypothetically use it to give someone bending as well? Could this lead to the rebirth of the airbenders?

Yes.

We learn from the Lion Turtle that spirits energy bending humans or “teaching” them bending skills is actually how bending came to be. (Sozin’s Comet Part 2).

Energy bending pre-dates all bending AND the Avatar, so yes, it’s intended primary function is to give people bending, we’ve always just seen it use to take people’s bending away.
