crankcase breather system performs the same function, but no valve. there is

AFAIK, the charcoal canister is meant for the cabin air. It's supposed to filter out some of the nasty crap outside before the air goes inside. Someone, I forget who, had a tech article on how to get rid of it, although it doesn't weigh much (about 1lb if I remember correctly).
