But she did cover drugs in OOP. It was subtle but there were illegal
magical enhancers going around. Hermione was confiscating them and Ron
begged her to give him some.
I don't remember what it was supposed to be, but when she analyzed it
the make-up was completely different and possibly dangerous.
I'd imagine like anyone else, she changes her mind about things from
time to time.
