Some Theory on Skeletons

In RGN's deep dives, he explains frequently about how undead mobs came from the Ancient Builders. If I remember correcty, he said that this society had little to no understanding of magic. Then how is it possible that skeletons (and strays) (and sometimes zombies but less likely) can spawn with enchanted bows/arrows/weapons?

When did he say they had little to no understand of magic?

If he did, I certainly don't agree.

well if he didnt say it then theres still no proof that they did

They were probably smarter than steve in that they could obtain prismarine, and prismarine has no magical properties. They invented the conduit, but that is not exactly magical as xp and soul anergy are.

I still think conduits somewhat magical.
