Why Does GURPS Hate Enchanting So Much?

I worked it out earlier today, and using the same assumptions as used in GURPS Magic for pay levels, a one-mage project under my proposed system will cost $4/hr. A project big enough to use a full circle of 6 will cost $28/hr. Because of the squared time, the breakeven point is surprisingly low, just 150 energy. Both cases assume the target object is small and simple enough to be made in that time, as with a wand or an enamelled medallion.
