Hey, I understand the logic behind the leap, but it is still a leap. 

Figg can come to Hogwarts in another capacity, or JKR can write more 
Privet Drive stuff for her (which would make more sense, actually 
because I think Harry might seek her out now) or do any one of a 
number of things.

Figg is the best candidate of the three "knowns" that have been 
submitted -- Fleur and Neville's Gran are the others -- but who's to 
say it won't be an unknown?
