Think about it. Isn’t light+eyes and ears+sound just the same in terms of their “influence at a distance”? We don’t feel that as abnormal or magic - simply because we’ve sensors for them and are used to it. But physically speaking light and magnetism are based on electromagnetic forces.
detecting magnetism will rarely be useful for humans especially in the context of survival
You would have at least one part to a functioning magnet at all times lol ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
