Wizardly scrolls do.

Casting an uncharged wizardry scroll of Fireball cleary uses your Magery level. So a charged wizardry scroll probably does too.

An uncharged universal scroll would need something to determine the amount you can put into it and the minimum makes the most sense and is consistent with other rules.

Charged scrolls probably should work the same way as the uncharged scrolls, since the only difference is that they include the cost.

Would you say some scrolls take longer for some casters? That you could conceivably enlarge an 18d missile for more than three seconds if you have Magery 1? That’d be an entirely new rule, no?
Enlarging isn't casting, you cast a missile spell in your hand (that's when you roll) and then optionally enlarge it for up to two additional turns). So casting would take the same time regardless (two seconds with a scroll).
