This would explain so much... like why Arthur always runs into danger when he knows there's a 99% chance of no survival without magic. I mean seriously, Morgana could take out a small army if she tried! And he waddles in a tower fall of Saxons by himself, with just his servant? Even though he denies it, really, Merlin is his best friend and guardian, otherwise he wouldn't bring him literally everywhere (even on his and Gwen's dates).
