Normal weapons can't do a thing against high-tech magical armor/weapons

I kind of agree because Fate goes through so much concrete apparently unharmed when she's fighting Signum, but on the other hand she routinely fights with Bardiche in Device Mode just using the physical blade against very heavily-armored opponents like Signum (before she had access to Haken) and the Book, so it might be that physical attacks can act as an equalizer when your opponent has an advantage in magical power.
Like there's only a basic level of physical defense in their armor that isn't as easy to increase as the magical aspect. That or they just 'tune' it to take magical damage over physical because magical damage is the type they're likely to receive in quantity...
