Now for theory crafting. Magic is more dangerous than mass based weponry. Stun setting is nice and all, but hear me out.

magic bubble A contains Depleted uranium.

Magic bubble b contains plutonium

magic bubble c contains crap

ram them together BOOM nuclear fallout.
Nuclear explosions are a bit more complex than that (the exact timing of the implosion has to be perfect), but yeah, it is possible. And magic shields can be made to contain certain elements while letting others pass. Fate put a shield that filtered out the smoke and gases and let oxygen pass for those folks trapped in the fire.

But yeah, magic can be more dangerous. It's just that mass-based can be used by anyone, so the creator can pass on the device to another. Magic is tied to the individual.
