The electromagnetic field is the only one that is busy at all scales, from the atomic level, to stellar and even cosmological scales. Strong and electroweak forces dont have a macroscopic footprint, while gravity doesnt have a microscopic one.
So when gravity manifests around a mass agglomeration its somehow "normal". But when a strong magnetic field builds around a star is almost like the microscopic "leaking" into the macroscopic. Countless tiny electrons coordinated in a dance that can be seen across the universe.
