One reason I think Luna is there is so Harry - Or us - can learn
things without neccesarily knowing what is true and what isn't. She
is always going on about creatures tha everyone else knows are not
real, but some of what she says, like the thestrals, is. When she
talks about the veil, for instance, who is to know what part is real
and what is just Loony Lovegood talking again.
