If the warrior was paying attention, then he has just seen how an expert casts 
a fireball.  It can be very educational to watch an expert at work.  Now the 
warrior nows a little more about how to cast fireballs, and how to cast magic 
in general.  Sometime in the future, the warrior learns the fireball spell 
and remembers "I once saw a mage cast fireballs this way." he will find the 
casting of fireballs a little easier.

If the warrior never learns magic, let alone the fireball spell, then he knows 
a little bit of trivia that may be usefull for winning bets at his local 
tavern B-).

On the other hand, if the warrior was busy swinging his sword at something big 
and scary at the time, he would not have a chance to study an expert mage 
doing what mages do best.  Also, the mage would only share mystical secrets 
with his party members.

The same thing applies when a mage studies a friendly warrior waving a sword 
around in an expert manner.
