The point is that any sort of magic may be resisted by any sort of ability that's relevant. (Perhaps the errata should have changed "magical" to "relevant" though perhaps the sentence should be rewritten.) This is sort of a major departure compared to other games, so it's worth trying to fix sloppy writing that suggests otherwise.
