Is Origin (magic, natural etc.) pointless

If my character is magic origin with cyborg arms, there's gonna be a damn good reason for it in the bio.

Not cyborg arms, but I created a character who'd been dumped into Paragon through an unstable portal from a world that had developed similarly to the world of Poul Anderson's Operation Chaos or Harry Turtledove's The Case of the Toxic Spell Dump, where magic was the technology, naming him 'Machinator Magicus', having recalled the occupation of a character in Kirk Mitchell's novel Cry Republic (third in an alternate-history series where Rome never fell, but stagnated) -- a 'machinator', what we would call an engineer. This let me justify having what was very loosely a magical version of Iron Man (albeit with different abilities).
