Just wanted to add a seemingly kind of important but missed fact. Don't forget about how Subaru's magic attribute is apparently shadow element, of which Emilia doesn't have. And at this point, it's still so underdeveloped you'd think it'll either be forgotten or will play an enormous role farther down the plot. Guess we'll have to see, but I do like the time travel loop theory the most, since Subaru's abilities revolves around time travel looping, which is kind of super op. That, in essence would be enough reason to underdevelop his magic powers since the story would lose a lot of the mystery were he to gain 'witchly' powers early on. Since the main story is revolving around that time loop 'skill', a plot reveal much farther down the line concerning a bigger time loop doesn't seem so far fetched. It is the theme after all.
