But also...it is important to The Order for the Dursleys to treat
Harry better. Why? Because more than once (and against all
exhortations) Harry has, as the saying goes, "taken a powder" from
#4 Privet Drive. Having the Dursleys treat Harry in a nicer way
(whether they end up doing so is another matter) goes a long way
towards having HP stay put.
