I like your post about magic not following human ideas, and how it’d need to be analyzed and how it never comes up in fiction. I think you forgot to take one thing into account though. What if magic’s ideas are different in all these stories, but all the analyzing has already been done? Cavemen wizards just threw energy around, slowly refining it for more power and more precisions. Over generations new possibilities are discovered and explored. Figuring out transmutation, and how to enchant, etc

Hmm. I suppose that is fair. Spells could work conveniently because they’re not inherent to the magic, but rather the human-imposed framework that takes over the role of the magitech I mentioned in guiding the magic into doing what we want it to do. Wild magic that hasn’t had this framework imposed on it might do unpredictable and dangerous things like the examples I gave in that post, and the same thing can happen if someone messes up at casting a spell, unleashing the restrained/”tamed” magic.
