I agree, there are plenty of things that you can just use aether as explanation. I just like to think it doesn't have to be the only explanation. Well, minus stuff like actually casting magic - which is explicitly stated as using aether and such. It's only when people just haphazardly peg "aether" as an answer, or assume it's the only way something could work when alternatives exist... that's when it starts to bother me.
... I hope that makes sense.
