Anything that breaks the laws of physics has power beyond limits (quite literally) and indeed, would function the best as a weapon. But it would also function as a weapon of peace, a weapon of reparation, and so on, which to me is so much more important. It has limitless power, except for when it has things it can't do, when it weakens the caster, when it takes ages to prep, and when there's ways for the muggle-types of that universe to resist magic. Some things even include creatures that are naturally resistant to magic. Most systems include at least one major issue. Indeed, most contain multiple flaws. Simply because magic can often do things that should be impossible doesn't mean it can do anything which is impossible. Except that resistance is never total.
