Common misunderstanding, but that's not how magic work in this story.

They don't exactly wrap reality the way Esper supposedly do. They borrow powers and use them in formulas written with the laws of magic in mind. They don't change reality, they just play by a different set of rules.

(Yes, I remember Aureolus Izzard. There was something that the anime failed to mention- he was in fact writing an original grimoire.)

That wouldn't work anymore because we know that Imagine Breaker isn't an Esper power to begin with.
