INakaba often seems to refer to a charcter's raw power as their magic power, even when magica isn't actually involved. It makes things a bit confusing, but it only seemed likes a big deal here, for the reason you said. Like, he seems to switch back and forth between whether the Demon Clan's darkness is magic or not. But Merlin has already said what "magic" is, level of magical power.

Matrona does seem too low, that is weird.

That bit about Escanor was weird and doesn't make sense, but like you said, I don't think it's supposed to actually be taken seriously.

I don't really see the point in comparing Escanor's sunshine to the flames of purgatory, it's basically apples to oranges.
