It it's true that JKR is trying to emphasize one's choices over one's blood - saying that Hagrid isn't evil because he has a giant for a mother, for example - then why are Crabbe, Goyle and Malfoy's parents all at the DE gathering - and conveniently, CGM are HRH's worst enemies. Wouldn't it have been more shocking to show one of the other student's parent there - for instance, Seamus' mother? Or at least to have one of the three NOT be there?
