Ah. No, annemehr sussed out the point I was trying to make - that 
having a catch-all abuse/maltreatment category would/could save having 
to create further similar categories for Elves, Muggles, whatever at a 
later date.
Anyway, Snape is damn near perfect as a teacher - keeps the little sods 
in line.

Furious invective? Surely not.
Satire? Some mistake, surely.
Well, slight tendencies perhaps.
But  there  is a valid possibility in there. The fact that it may upset 
one or two is merely coincidental - as usual
