I don't think the suits being powered by arc reactors would be considered general knowledge as I doubt very many people actually know about it.

Magic is already in the Marvel universe, see Thor, Loki and the other Asgardians..plus Dr. Strange was mentioned in the new Cap movie.

Gender: Male Location: Instant Transmission Warp Plane
In the Iron Man 2 opening sequence we see that Scientific American ran a cover story dubbed "Stark's Arc" with a picture of a miniaturized arc reactor, citing it as a power source. So yes, it is general knowledge that the arc reactor exists and that it supplies energy. It would not be difficult for a genius like Dumbledore to put two and two together and deduce that the blue-white circular reactor is the blue-white circular disc in their chests. Not that he needs to rip them out to win anyway.
The Mandarin never existed. Thor as an Asgardian has superhuman reflexes, was holding back in that encounter not to mention that Tony's repulsor blasts actually hit him in their brief little scuffle as well.
You realize that you just admitted that the arc reactor being the suit's power source isn't general knowledge.

Wizards can't even figure out how telephones work in the HPverse, and you're claiming that Dumbledore can compromise a piece of technology as sophisticated as the Arc? Stop kidding yourself.
Not to mention that he'll have to figure it out in the middle of battle, and presupposing the fact that he could even pull that off is being overtly generous to him.
Lol at you calling Dumbledore a genius when comparing him to a guy who managed to create a 3 gigawatt powersuit literally from a bunch of scrap in the middle of a desert. Even while being half dead, no less.
I forgot about the arc reactors existing being public knowledge, but having thought about it I now remember that Tony had a big one in the first Iron-man movie that Stane said was a publicity stunt and one of Stark's towers in Avengers was being powered by one.
Still, I don't think the suits being powered by them are general knowledge.

He did a 180 degree roundabout in this thread and claimed that Rowling's opinions regarding Riddle's age apply just because she is writing the screenplay for that movie. Yet her opinion doesn't count with the mainstream HP series even though she influenced the scripts of 3 of the movies and was exec producer for the final installment.
In other words, quan is being the hypocritical prick that he is well known for being around these part.
The Asgardians claim their powers to be advanced science, not magic. I know doctor strange was mentioned in cap 2, I was referring to his actual cinematic introduction.
Once magic is officially introduced to the MCU, we can see how Tony's suit handles it. That's what I said, dumbass.
When Rhodey and that Air Force major were dismantling the suit for Hammer to weaponize, the major commented on whether the arc reactor was the power source or not of the suit. Not to mention he didn't seem to have the first clue as to what the device actually was.
If a trained military operative in that section of the Air Force which deals with next generation weapons would be skeptical and semi-ignorant about what the arc reactor is, then there is no way in hell that the average joe would be sufficiently aware of such a device, nevermind a mage from a different universe who should logically have no idea about the armored opponents he's facing in this thread.
We're not going into semantics here. By Thor's definition, magic is that which cannot be explained by science. According to Thor, who is a pretty credible source, Asgardian powers can be explained by science. Therefore, he doesn't consider them magic.
Once magic is officially recognized, then we can gauge Iron Man's resistance to it.
Your arguments all consist of pathetic manipulation of semantics and fanboy bias. Try bring logical for once.
Thor said that magic and science are one and the same and he's right.

At no point in any of the movies did they state that magic wasn't real, Thor just said that magic and science are one and the same; which is true.
