I do think that Arthur hating magic isn't very believable, I always imagined Arthur as a person who was clearly conflicted about accepting magic or hating it before he ultimately accepts magic, not as a person who is close to accepting magic and then suddenly hates it (and repeating the same thing in Series 4). That wasn't handled well, I was initially fine with Arthur hating magic only in Series 2, but to repeat it in Series 4 is ridiculous.
