They know how to deal with entities from various other worlds which doesn't mean they can travel to or in those other worlds.
A devout Rokari priest knows how to exorcise spirits from the material world but that doesn't make him an animist.
My reading of propitiators is that generally they use common magic to deal with all sorts of entities although in specific cases may learn other sorts of magic.
