A thought about PS/SS

I have been transcribing the HP books. I've been planning on it for
a while now, and have just started. I'm working on PS/SS right now,
and I realized something:
When Hagrid brings baby Harry to Privet Drive, he tells DD that he
got the motorcycle from "young Sirius Black."
Here's the weird part:
DD thought SB was the Potter's secret Keeper, correct? And if he
knew that Voldemort had gotten the Potters (which he does know),
then obviously he knew that something had happened, that the secret
keeper had told Voldemort where they were.
So why doesn't DD have some sort of reaction to the name when Hagrid
says Sirius' name? Surely DD would have registered some surprise,
but he only says "No problems, were there?"
DD testified that SB was the Secret keeper. Did he know about the
switch? I never thought so, otherwise he'd have found a way to get
SB out of prison. So why doesn't DD look surprised, upset, or ask
Hagrid anything about SB? Maybe a "What was he doing there?" or
something, anything!
This concerns me... Any thoughts?
