Magic spells outside RPGs

3. Same regarding the scientist or engineers taking over the world. Because they spend time learning science / wizarding and not time spent taking over the world. The people who do spend time taking over the world (eg. Kings and politicians) end up taking over the world.

Scientists and engineers are affected by certain logistical constraints, however. They have to buy tons of expensive equipment for comparatively little versatility to achieve the same effects as a wizard, who can annihilate a roomful people with nothing more than a pinch of bat poo.

I don't think it's inaccurate to say that a wizard could make a good go of world domination, particularly when his studies makes him like unto a god.
