Tiny question, if Scootaloo is a pegasus with pegasus magic, why can't she fly?

Tiny potential answer, flying is learnt by pegasi, and alicorns, but their magic allowing flight is the means that lets them learn. A pony with wings without pegasus magic may not learn to fly. Scootaloo can do anything another pegasus can, except fly. She has the magic, but not the physical capability.

It was stated by her that she was worried she couldn't ever fly because her wings may never grow, clarifying that she can't fly yet because they're not big enough. That's more a physical defect than a magical one
