Not everbody is able to learn magic,either it's something their born with,or it work's in the way that technically unless you have some intellectual disability anyone can learn to be a brain surgeon but realistically no not everyone can some people just won't be able to.This is evidenced by distrust of magic,the Aspiring Mage saying the magic was in the staff not him,the fact that there's not many healers even in times of war when they're needed.There is a need for a few small advances in non-magic based technology for everyday use by citizen with no skills in magic,as well as for the soldiers of Hammerfell and Skyrim now that they are about to go to war with the more magically gifted Altmer and possibly even the Empire
