Just to get it out of the way, I agree with you. :)

That being said, one could also pick apart the movie for (a) not
showing every scene in the book, and (b) not being completely accurate
to the book in the scenes the movie does show. Binns' class was not
shown in the movie at all, probably since it would have added too much
runtime in a movie where we have already seen McGonagall's class. We
also didn't see Potions (if I recall correction) in CoS.

Moving key points of a book into apparently inappropriate settings is
what book adaptations are all about.

(delayed reaction) WHAT? There's no such thing as "too much
runtime"!!! :)
