So err. What are the rules on magic exactly. I interpret it as "it cannot do these things except people the story is likely to focus on can ignore these limitations, so what's the point even.

Also, if angels have innate supernatural abilities, that's still magic in my book.

It might be magic in "your book" but it's not magic in this book. :) I'd like you to keep an open mind and not just look for confirmations to what you think, but try to learn and adopt the rules of this universe instead. 

Angels function in a fundamentally very different way than humans and demons. The things Weather angels can do are a result of the essence of the surface mixing with their own, thus making them conducts (often unwilling) to natural forces. Tamer angels can manipulate demons by imposing their own essence upon them and so on. If you want to play an angel, feel free to inquire about the specifics if the site isn't clear enough. 

In broader terms, the rules about magic are that everyone has a specific way of utilising essence. The limitations are character-specific with the general rule being that there's not a single player character that's the strongest of them all who will always come out on top no matter what.
