Granted, it could be (and probably is) that it severely weakens the Reach. However, isn't it possible that couldn't one of the Light's magicians did some stuff to the altar thingy that they used to cure Blue and Green that will later allow them to take the two Beetles over? It's just a theory. And I think that their suceptibility to magic/sorcery (seen when Aqualad kidnapped the team and blew up the Cave) is going to come into play again later, possilby in the finale. It's an easy way for the show to take the two people who could crush the reach fairly easily out of the picture, and let the other heros get some screen time.
