The Theory of Magic, as presented by the Gorilla of Destiny, contains a fatal flaw. Recent work has shown that in order to function as described, in both classical and quantum cases, the theory demands infinite energy from the magic-field. This seems unlikely and thus underlines a flaw in the theory of magic. Two groups of research have thus emerged, the Preservationists, who aim to preserve as much of the original theory as possible, and the Aedificarists, who build new models for magic. Here we review the leading theories from both camps and summarise their findings such that a reader might understand each argument. While this work is ongoing, it is vital we begin to categorize and develop each of these theories.

In [2], the author discovers a flaw in the original theory of magic which predicts infinite spell potential energy at the range. In this letter, we show that by renormalising the spell deformation amplitude according to B(t) prop. σ_x(t)^(3/2) then we can provide a finite energy solution to the classical theory of magic. This also then results in physical justification for spells auto-casting at their range if we attempt to move them past. However, this work is far from complete and suggests that significant reformulation work is required, particularly for quantum magic theory.
