Oh yeah, I know.  I've read and enjoyed PoU.  My point (which 
was partly tongue in cheek) was that reading PoU gave me two feelings:

(1) H & H are so good together!  
(2) OH MY GOD, SHE KILLED RON!

On the principles of aversion therapy, putting these two things 
together may make an otherwise malleable reader run screaming from any 
H/H combination!
