Thanks for the questions. First the larger and more complex a matrix the longer it takes to create and the more magic it takes to maintain. And the more chances you have for messing it up making it harder and more dangerous to cast spells with a large matrix.
Second you can use any language for a spell's matrix but the shorter and simpler the words needed the less space used this is why ponies use the runic language even though it's not used for anything else as if you need a word of concept, it only takes one symbol.
Third why is it important that it's made my ponies?. Well even among humans we have vastly different interpretations of the same things and that's among the same species. And while ponies are similar to humans in many ways, they are also very different. So, they may view something in a very different light then we do. A good example is eating meat I think it's safe to assume that most ponies don't like the idea of eating meat and so the word for in their language expectedly the older languages from further in their past meat eating might mean someone evil or untrustworthy. So, when using a language like that the differences are best kept in mind as you don't want your spell doing something entirely different just because use misunderstood what a word meant.
And finely math well we know ponies use base ten like humans and magic doesn't care how you use math just that it's correct so Shade can use human math and it would work just fine.
Thanks for reading and I hope this answered your questions.
Thanks for the update!

Your welcome and thanks for reading.
What about useful or neutral bugs and critters? Will they be affected too? This reminds me of four pest compaign. Or this made up targeting system works wonders? What if other bugs take place of these driven out by magic?
Will our protagonist face any hardships for once or will he tweak things endlessly in his room?

Was one of my first thoughts on it too but this has a variety of differences.
For one it's designed to freeze pests but slowly as to conserve power, considering most pests are seasonal I think they'll move on to warmer pastures rather than sit there in the small cold area till they freeze to death.
From last chapter;
So the hope is most will just avoid the small cold area.
Without alteration he'll probably have issues with things getting pollinated but even without fixing that issue you could just not use it during flowering season and it'd still be a big help the rest of the time.
I can see it going awry but I can't see any way that it could fail in any major fashion, it's just too weak of an effect.
Be interesting to see how it does the targeting like does it go off of species=insect? (are changelings close enough to count?) Intent=eatcrops? (whenever I think about how good the apples will be I get a chill) size, weight?
On that note has he accidentally invented air conditioning or is that already a thing? or not a thing since they control the weather? Or not because it would use too much power to cool something of that size?

Thanks as always for your help.
Ooh! Is he going to use an illusion rune to make the figurine have an ethereal mane or emit a soft and serene moonlight? I want to imagine it’s shaped to be joyously proclaiming, “The fun has been doubled!”
How will the pest spell differentiate between good pests and bad ones? Some bugs are good pollinators. Some ants and worms are good for soils.
Its like one of those heat pad thing
I saw a guy power a lego car with an ice cube and a candle once

"white rose" seems like a pretty generic name, but i guess it works
