This is more due to the nature of Gandalf though. He’s not really a wizard, and he’s not human. He’s an angelic being, and his “powers” are more divine than magical. Because of this, he’s restricted to not using his power to cause direct change to Middle Earth. Instead his role is meant to be more of a guide/advisor, and to encourage others to do the right thing. When he does use his powers, he deliberately only uses the bare minimum amount needed to accomplish his goal
