Why does the ranged creeps deal physical damages?

I mean, they look like mages and cast magical firebolts out of a wand, yet deal physical damages. What is this inconsistency?

I would love for ranged creeps to do magic damage, then those pesky ranged tops will think twice before spamming potshot AAs at me with their puny base MR. Jayce/Teemo/Gnar tops can go to hell.

Because all auto attacks do physical damage

Gromp and Baron'd auto deal magic damages

Balance reasons. Imagine how OP trades would get or how little interactive trading would go on in early stages of the game if you had to worry about your tiny MR that you start with as a problem for ranged creeps.

I guess this can be balanced out... Like reducing the base damages of ranged creeps...
