It's simply premature to claim that a theory is invalid based on what we've seen (and haven't seen) in the new anime series, especially in terms of nature transformations.

But I'd like to add, that there may be a slight problem with arguing that magnet-release is earth + wind because of what the 4th databook tells us about Rasa's Nature transformations.

That particular source has proven to have several mistakes: Choji not being able to use earth release or Mu not having water release, despite that they've used those natures canonically.

While not a certainty, there is a chance that there may very well be more mistakes, but that is of course not enough to succesfully argue that the theory: earth + wind = Magnet, is invalid.

But it's unlikely that this is ever clarified in writing.
