Why is Macduff's birth so important to the plot of the play?

It means that Macduff and Macbeth are actually related.

His unique birth gave him supernatural strength.

Because Macbeth was born the same way, he felt a bond with Macduff.

Macbeth can not be killed by a man born naturally of a woman.
