I would argue that the psi powers used by SF writers from the 30's to the 50's, including such names as Asimov, Doc Smith, Marion Zimmer Bradley, Andre Norton, and McCaffery were the functional equivalent of witches. A number of classic SF books used psi powers.

I agree. In my own cataloging many books of that nature are simply tagged as speculative fiction as I can't quite bring myself to consider psi powers when presented as some sort of innate power as even fictional science but I know that they weren't intended to be fantasy.
