That's a good point.  I really only meant that between the two, I 
thought Arabella Figg would be the better choice (mainly because 
Fleur seems like a weaker choice).  I should have said the better 
choice instead of the best.  It would be kind of funny, though, to 
see how the Hogwarts boys did with a Veela as a teacher - and how 
the Hogwarts girls did with all the boys completely distracted. :)
