Okay. (1) Magery 1+ is, essentially, a Talent - a general ability to be good at a bunch of skills or skill-type things. (2) Sufficient study or practice can, arguably, make one more competent in a fairly broad category of things. (3) Therefore, practice with magic-in-general might plausibly make one better at magic-in-general, which is represented by more levels of Magery.

Alternatively, assume that Magery is a gift of the gods. If the gods wish to augment their gifts, who are mortals to argue with them?
