The problem with the laws of conservation is that they all depend on being in a closed system. Take one aspect of Quantum mechanics is Quantum fluctuation involving particle-antiparticle pairs that appear and disappear. Which is fine until they so close they hit each other producing some energy.
The Law of Mass and Energy Conservation just took it on the chin because
you had energy come from nowhere. If you say this is due to the universe not being a closed system than all the other laws of conservation take a dirt nap.
Never mind that one of the Laws in
Authentic Thaumaturgy is The Law of Positive Attraction which is summed up as “That which is sent, returns.” ie "Like attracts like; to create a particular reality
you must put out energy of a similar sort." This is effectively the The Law of Equivalent Exchange out of
Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood .
