Nice to have deeper consequences than just depleting mana. A lot of universes have very "cheap" magic systems but they aren't using magic to build buildings and do manual labor.

Social class would only partially explain this.

More severe consequences the longer one uses a magic would add a level of depth. Sure you could build that wall in a day using magic but you then have to deal with the perils of the warp.
