Major Frustration over the Magic. (No, not the timeline or stuff)

Once-Magic Babble Rules

--Potions are just as good as casting the spell yourself, but likely even more potent.

Zelena legit looked at a recipe for the tethering potion, remarked about it, then waved her hand to tether the most powerful magic user in the land to a sword. I would be okay with that if she didn't say potion and if Merlin didn't show him using a cauldron and if Zelena or Arthur actually used a potion.

This makes me very, very mad. Then we had Nimue say that Merlin can speak words (like an incantation) and get rid of Vortigan. Well, besides the fact that he could at least turned him into a frog to stop rampaging everywhere, it reminded me that in Once they just wave their hands. Wonderland proved that there are magic words as well, but I guess they choose not to use them. But it's very frustrating when they say incantation and don't use words.
