Sadly I completely agree with this. The best way to deal with that problem would be to not include "magic" in a Middle earth game at all. Elven magic, for example, was not really of a combative nature anyway.
As blantyr said, magic in Middle earth was almost always subtle.
It was so subtle that those lacking in subcreative ability would frequently go without realizing it and when they did see it they completely misunderstood it.
