Level-based damage blocks apply to all players. That the YGGDRASIL engine doesn't consider the New World exclusive Wild Magic a "damage type" and therefore ignore it/let's it through, is the simplest explanation that relies on the least amount of assumptions. I'll Occam's Razor it. So that's my hypothesis on the matter.

It's like Thor's Mjolnir. Mjolnir won't let the Hulk lift it but it is perfectly fine hanging from a wall hanger. It applies different rules to different things. Mjolnir doesn't consider the wall hanger something worthy of a test of, well, worth so it won't test it. YGGDRASIL doesn't consider Wild Magic as damage (because it wasn't programmed as damage), so why block it?
