Okay

It isn't Kinetic energy, it is literally force. It isn't like a normal projectile.

it also isn't traditional intangibility- the verse does normally make very set ideas for what is and isn't intangible and why it is intangible. An Allip isn't intangible in the same way an Air Elemental is.

Force isn't any of the above- it is simply the raw arcane energy of the multiverse. Magic Missile is so popular in-verse because despite relatively low damage there is literally nothing that can be done to prevent it from hitting the target. The exception to this is of course in-verse magic nullification/resistance.
