This is bad logic. Ferromagnetic explains half levitation but it doesn't explain full levitation. Superconductivity is sufficient to explain full levitation and half levitation.

Sure, metal ones are, but Are ceramic ferromagnets (without iron) common? That lone electron in an orbital is pretty important.
