bboy_mn,
This is exactly what I thought, only you put it so much more clearly
than I could! I didn't want to edit the post I was refering to because
it explains it so very well! 
This also ties in with the possiblity of Ron's view in the mirror of
Erised being true- a hint by J.K. He is already a prefect, so who knows?
