You'll note that the line is question was talking about 'complete cut off' so it obviously was referring to the super AMF that even knocked Rein out of Unison. Not the field that was up all the time. It never said it was 'chosen not to interfere with with the operation of mages and devices' it was said to be programmed not to interfere with
machinery. I'll remind you that the entire ship runs on magic, doing a complete magic cut off means shutting down the ships reactor. The reactor has enough power to punch through the AMF, but mages would have trouble.
Here is the quote again for reference:
The high concentration field filling the Cradle that prevents magical bonding.
The reason for not doing a complete cut off is because magic is an extremely efficient and good energy source for Midchildra, and thus is essential to the daily activities and machinery usage of the people on board.
It is thought that the Cradle's crew and knights are trained to resist AMF, and thus can use magic against intruders who are having difficulty using magic, thus increasing the defensive capability of the ground.
