Well, we don't know what many mages really specialize in.

Seeing as Wuunferth teaches destruction spells, Farengar is normally seen using an arcane enchanter, and Tolfdir teaches Alteration (as well as wears master robes of Alteration), we can sort of guess what they specialize in.

'It's kind of implied in the game that they the Fighter's Guild of Skyrim per se. So that's why I said that. '

Yah, except gameplay doesn't equal lore.

'Due The College teaching magic, they could've thought the two wewre synonmous. When they weren't.'

That's like saying an engineering school is synonymous with engineering. Which is not true at all.

'It's isn't magic, It could be mages since the Dragonborn basically admits to being a mage if they say they're from the College of Winterhold. While the other professions might use magic too.'

"Clever Craft"

craft  (krăft)n.'''1. ''' Skill in doing or making something, as in the arts; proficiency.

A mage isn't a craft -_-

and how is this relevant?
