Doesn't that cover everybody in the novel?
In the series, putting aside what the reader thinks,in the end, you 
are either a deatheater or not a deatheater.  You are either good 
or bad.  In each category you are either prominant or 
"expendable."  Who doesn't this classification people who could 
die in this story cover (other than muggles, who would not at all 
be missed by the reader)?
