Your "Defence" point covers some of the reason why; consider also the need to mete out justice in controversies to which a magic user is a party. To avoid any magical shenanigans to gain an unfair advantage, a monarch strong enough to detect and neutralize them is necessary. Then, should the judgment fall against a magic user, one must be strong enough to carry it out. | |
