Of course if V or P don't want anything to do with Magic, the fact that
they refer to "your lot", "his kind", "your kind of people", etc
couldn't possibly meant that P is trying to not even mention Harry's
parents. Particularly since P does mention James quite often in the
summer holidays periods of the books, just not directly by name, but
rather through a euphemism like those above.
