The guiding star or mantra here was, "Keep it straightforward, keep it simple, and keep it standalone (which is to say, include enough so the GM can run a typical group of delvers without needing to buy other books)."

That applies to adventurer creation, system rules, magic, and more.

Since we've already leaked that Adventurers will be the longest book at 128 pages, that should make it obvious that the whole of GURPS Magic will not be included. What will be included is a distillation of that book that is straightforward, simple, and standalone.
