Del replies :
Agreed. But similarly I assume a judge would say that we can't
conclude that the other champions never thought about telling Cedric.
In fact, if we try to be fair, we should conclude from the books that :
- Mme Maxime saw the dragons and told Fleur. But she most probably
doesn't know that Harry and Karkaroff saw them too. So technically
Fleur thinks she's got an advantage over all the other champions.
- Karkaroff saw the dragons and most probably Mme Maxime. We can
presume that he told both those things to Viktor. So Viktor thinks
that both Harry and Cedric are at a disadvantage.
- Harry is the only one who knows that only Cedric doesn't know about
the dragons.
Hence, we can't really compare Harry's action with the other
champions' actions. Not all of them had all the cards in hand.
