Our group is confused about the "for all other purposes...the full Magic attribute is used" descriptions (SR4, p.186-187).

Take an example at chargen:
• Buy Magic 6
• Buy bio/cyber 1 essence (reduces magic attribute to 5)
• Buy 4 points of adept powers
• Use remaining 1 point for magic-based skills

I understand that you only add 1 magic dice to your spellcasting skill test initially. But, you are still considered magic attribute 5 for all other purposes. So, is the threshold for overcasting 1 or 5? Is the maximum force spell you can cast force 2 or force 10? Based on the book, it seems to me that overcasting threshold is 5 and maximum force is 10. Is that correct?
