Sorry this is short, I only just thought of it.

I know this is only fiction:

Dicentra:
>I'll concede this point: if Hogwarts were operating in the Real World,
>you could certainly argue that Dumbledore's little drama was in poor.
>taste at best, a tactical error at worst.

>But as part of the Potterverse?  It's only a mistake if it was written
>that way.

What I actually think is worse, is that it is not just Dumbledore giving this 
message to his students, but JKR giving the same message to her young 
readers, many of whom will not indulge in the kind of analysis that we are 
doing.

Eloise
(who isn't really such a moral prig as she sounds, honest.)
