Esper got their heads explode when casting magic because esper naturally release AIM. AIM naturally repulse magic energy, so esper casting magic is trying to mix water with oil, and ultimately they implodes as two power never mix. While saints, who are AIM free, have no such worries.
Also, even if you are a mage, if you try to cast magic in some high AIM density area, you'll explode too. Vent was literally dying when she tries to cast magic when Fuze=Kazakiri stand right in front to her.

Also, the theory you proposed actually supports the reason why Saints, despite being "talented" can use magic. Magic do borrows power from higher beings, and the Saints are naturally born with a body that bares resemblance to a higher being (Jesus Christ, or Mary the Virgin). So, of course they can use magic if they are similiar to the very source of magic.
