[MCU] How is Dr Strange's magic different from Loki's?

They dont look similar at all. If we believe Ancient one's reasoning of magic, what does Loki do?

There's more than one way to acheive an effect - just as there's more than one kind of technology there's more than one kind of magic.

Dr Strange uses mandala magic that was brought to Earth by Agamotto, but that doenst mean that's the only way to interface with whatever backend systems involved in magic. We also canonicaly know that asguardians use magic, so their magic must look/be different.

Just like someone solving a problem with an electronic device vs someone solving it with a chemical reaction - it's all tech, they just look wildely different.
