and I believe it's the other way around, in terms of arcane and fel magic and their avaliability, because of social reasons (arcane's a lot more tolerated than fel), practicality (fel magic can be traced to the twisting nether, whether through demons, demonic artifcats, or crystals storing it, while arcane magic can be tapped through simply being on Azeroth), and the qualities of each (fel magic being a concentrated, corrupted version of arcane magic).
