The world is full of things that we cannot, and never will fully understand.
Instead of accepting that we as a species cannot know everything, we fill the gaps with our imagination.

Easy now, I loves me some playstation and beer.
At any rate I think the cause of this conflict stems from different definitions of reality. Truthfully, you can put reality into at least two categories. I'm sure there are actually philosophical terms for this but I don't know them. So lets just say:
Concrete Reality-What is actually happening. Our senses have limits so perceiving concrete reality is out of our grasp. We can really only focus on one thing at a time and only on whats close enough for us to see/hear/smell/touch/taste. Closing your eyes doesn't actually make the whole world go black. The fact that we can be surprised is proof that concrete reality is beyond us.
Perceived or Subjective Reality-Reality as your own senses allow you to perceive them. This is your operating system for life. This is reality as you know it. It doesn't get any realer. So as far as our own abilities to perceive it, THIS IS REALITY. Magic works because it causes a glitch in the system. We're understanding their operating system and painting one picture while in concrete reality setting up an outcome that is impossible under the conditions that they have perceived.
We hack perceived reality. It sounds pretty cool that way

I didnt vote because I dont quite believe things as you "normal" humans do. And I have quite a...profound history with this particular subject, which is why my answer would be woefully complicated for you mere mortals to comprehend.
That said, how do you know that I am not really Elven? You dont, do you?
Anything you believe is there or possible.
We create reality with our minds so please all think positive and happy thoughts
With enough love in our hearts we can do anything
I think I have diabetes now.
