About battle mages.

In general, this ability allows you to protect battle mages, just like regular archers, and they won't deal damage to those protecting them. But it's better not to get caught in the center of the battlefield. And the damage that mages deal is quite significant! Especially with minor artifacts. As for the name and description, they are indeed idiotic. I noticed that they can be protected, but I still thought that this ability protects against magic.
