Went wizard/witch without a second thought because I thought basic magic users could still conjure material out of thin air but then I remembered the Weasleys are "poor" in-universe so maybe overestimated things... well, still.

A world with replicators and holodecks is pretty appealing just from a basic human comfort perspective. But there's a world of difference between a "safe" starfleet assignment and, say, being another body in the meatgrinder of the Dominion War. Or the aforementioned redshirt, sure.

Conjuration/alchemy(lead into gold, etc) is more than possible in a lot of magical univegses it's just always a massive taboo for obvious reasons.
