I majored in Computational Physics and I can tell you with certainty that electromagnetism is magic, and any machine utilizing said magic must be, by definition, magic themselves. You’re right not to trust any of those “oh it’s actually very well understood” snakes
Fun fact: According to Einstein’s equations, electromagnetism arises when you add a fourth spatial dimension to your assumptions. String theory assumes between 9 and 11 and hypothesizes that the extras are curled up into tiny string that manifest as forces such as electromagnetism. HOW MUCH MORE MAGIC WOO-WOO CAN YOU GET
