Magic is: "When I do X, Y happens. So I do X".
Where science as it stands would begin with: "X is ridiculous and has been disproven so we can't discuss or engage in it. Let's produce a weak proxy of Y with some prescription drugs"

Science is so politicised that magic looks empirical in comparison?
That is probably right.

Yeah something like that. I also think magic and science have a single point of origin. The reason science got split off from magic was because the church/state corrupted the previously unified entity of seeking to understand and apply knowledge.
So the practitioners attempted to chunk off the corrupted parts and call them magic to pursue with less baggage.
Now that's reversed. The science part is more corrupted, so people are looking back the previously discredited magic part.
But they're same.
Based on your logic is Astrology is more empirical than Astronomy? They were both one and the same practice at one time.
Probably. Observing changes in the sky and associated changes on earth and saying "When this happens this tends to happen".
Astronomy adds the deeper theoretical component, which can explain why, help reduce spurious inference, but may ignore unexplained
