Good points... but who's to say Dumbledore hadn't
wanted Harry to see the memories in the Pensieve...
because if you think about the Tom Riddle dairy is a
form of a Pensieve, and since we all seem to be
looking at Dumbledore as a fathering/mature mentor...
maybe he did want Harry to learn more about his
past... since if you think about it, anything dealing
with Vol has to do with Harry's past, even if it
happened before Harry was alive or too young to
remember.  Plus maybe the Pensieve comes back to help
Harry learn more about his parents.

Who know's???

Plus... we all know JKR always has a reason for us and
Harry to learn something and the way he learns things
is just as important as what those things are.... :)
