What do you mean "waste"? Faster research is faster research, even if your researchers are also good in fights. There might be better options, but that doesn't make this one weak or wasteful, just not-quite-optimal.

Also, people tend to forget that Magic 3 gives several other benefits than just research points. For example:

• * 30% less fatigue when casting spells in combat.
  
  * -1 MR (actually good if your troops/mages have high MR and the enemy has low).
  
  * Some spells effectiveness rely on magic scale.

Pushing that magic scale into enemy lands (with dominion) could benefit your invasion a lot. It is also a good thing to have if attacked in some cases.
