I suppose they tried too hard to rationalize magic and give it a backstory in a scifi show. In this case it probably would have been better to just keep it simple as plain old magic.

Still, my point is the damage and repair was both done outside the show. And fans who don't check for the extra details wouldn't know about it at all. Besides, half the stuff the creators say outside the show seems to conflict with each other, so the canonicity of any statement is debatable.
