It's quite simple really. Wild Magic is native to the New World. It's not recognized as a damage type by the YGGDRASIL engine because it was not part of YGGDRASIL. Ergo, it pierces the level-based immunity of high level players. YGGDRASIL does not consider it as "damage" because it was not programmed as damage, therefore the YGGDRASIL engine does not block it.

Refer to Log Horizon, where Misa's item [Calamity Hurts] goes haywire to perform its flavor text and proceeded to lopped off her arm. They couldn't heal her arm for precisely the same reason: it's not recognized as a damage type by the game engine.
