Don't forget, the hat was giving Harry a choice.  Or rather, was 
respecting Harry's choice.  And to Rowling, choice matters more 
than "essence".

Harry could be the heir of Gryffindor and have been put in 
Slytherin if he'd chosen it.  It just goes to show how incredibly 
insignificant 'birth status' really is to what kind of person you are.
