Funerals are a few days after someone has died and the shock has worn off. Most people are calm at funerals. They are not usually calm gathered around the body of a murdered person. Why was McGonagall so calm? Wasn't anyone freaked out, asking questions? Hysterical even? These are children and young adults we are talking about (mostly). They tend to be very dramatic. Very dramatic! They should have done the funeral if they were going to have everyone behave like that.

I don't know about McGonagall, but I think the students were supposed to be in shock.
