Low magic challenges aren't less exclusive than high magic ones, they just exclude different things. Specifically, they exclude the ability to overcome high magic challenges. If the thing you want to do is play a character who is "like Kaladin" and faces challenges that are "like The Stormlight Archive", a low magic games excluding your character concept.
