I believe my order was more concerned with frivolous magic because we were not innately magical. We tapped the power of something greater to fuel us, often the power of heaven or hell, and in some cases our own souls. They were likely to frown on us if we disturbed the power of the angels to mend shirts.
More than that, we were allowed to claim equipment and supplies, purchased in the line of our duties, on our taxes. I would always prefer to take a deduction over diminishing the strength of my soul.
