Then there is no reason to have them though - which would raise the question why lords feel it necessary to build them... considering that probably every other lord.. or every lord has a mage.

It's not that everything has to be realistic, but things should at least make sense.

In The Witcher, mages are powerful too, but castles are still important and work the way they are supposed to.
