Hauberks, or chain shirts, are heavy and not really needed. Leather armor would do just fine and provide adequate protection.
But basing it on the size of their weapon? I don't see how that works. What about the type of dagger they might be using? Some are significantly larger than others. Why would they need a hauberk if they're wielding a rapier or a longsword? Sure, the weapons are dangerous, but it's not like wearing heavier armor is going to help you wield them better.
A mage can wear more than robes, and besides, shouldn't the same thing apply to them? Some aren't half bad at swinging those who staffs around. And even though cloth armor itself isn't going to offer the same protection as hardened leather, riveted plates, and so on, it can't just be said it protects from nothing. If it's made as more specifically it can help cushion some blunt damage, and at the very least it offers a layer of protection against outside elements. It would be just as important for a mage to have their whole body covered even in robes to protect themselves from ACID RAIN!!!! as it would any other class with any other kind of armor.
