The Sergeant Majorette says:
Hear, hear. This is the justification for my theory that 'magic' is
what you call technology before it has been codified, before anybody
has figured out how to make money off of it. The problem with
Potterverse magic is that it's been co-opted by the Luddites. As
readily-available mass-market alternatives become available, sensible
modern folk drop the old ways. In my young days, things like
ballpoint pens, pocket calculators and electric typewriters were
considered tools of Satan intended to lull good students into bad
study habits. Now, even religious schools teach computer science.
