<<For example, and we are touching on Spoiler territory here, I was
very disappointed that Ron and Hermione being made prefects wasn't
shown. That may seem unnecessary, but it gives us a window into the
many characters, who they are, how they feel, what they think, how
they react. It's called character development.>>

This was one of the most critical omissions in my mind, as
it was another reinforcement of why Harry felt so betrayed by
Dumbledore, even before the school year had begun. Harry disliked
feeling jealous of Ron for being selected instead of himself AND YET
there was the undeniable feeling that here again, after a summer of
silence from everyone including Dumbledore, and after all Harry admitted
to himself he had accomplished over the years, he has to wonder why was
he not chosen Prefect. He also has to feel an odd sense of being alone
AGAIN when Hermione and Ron have to remind him they will not spend much
of the trip on the Hogwarts Express back to school with him. Of course
he took solace later in knowing that his Father had not been Prefect
either. It is also important to see Ron as Prefect and becoming
Quidditch Keeper, in that we see Ron developing into the person he saw
in the mirror of Erised, not just the best friend and sidekick of the
Chosen One.
