I was wondering if the twins don't get in trouble
because they're not doing magic.  What I mean is, most
of what they do is probably achieved with potions. 
And so they're not doing magic, they're just putting
magic ingredients in a cauldron and then using the
result.  After all, kids can't be in trouble for using
magical implements and potions; if they were, they
wouldn't be able to use a wizarding radio.

Of course, they could be using charms instead of
potions, and then this would make no sense at all.
