"I think that JKR deliberately made each member of the trio different.
Her reason for doing so could be as simple as wanting to give most of
the kids someone like them to identify with."

Del replies:
It could be. It would make me feel better for not identifying too much
with Harry and much more with Ron (I'm just a normal, average person
after all, I don't identify too well with over-talented heroes).

" They are each talented in different ways, and I'm hoping that the
ultimate battle with Voldemort won't be just a "Harry-thing", but
require him to work with Ron and Hermione, and possibly all/most of
the DA. It makes the final battle so much more rewarding to read if it
takes the strengths of more than one person to finally get rid of
Voldemort."

Del replies:
Amen to that !!
The ending of PS/SS was one major reason I loved the book so much :
because it showed that people are so much stronger when working
together. Harry was alone when he faced Quirrellmort, but he would
never have gotten to the Mirror Room to start with if it hadn't been
for Ron and Hermione.
