Hannah now: In fact, perhaps logic is an especial weakness of LV's.  
DD asks Snape to make an obstacle to reaching the philosopher's 
stone.  He may say that he fears it is LV who is trying to steal it, 
but even if not, I bet that's who Snape would be most keen to guard 
it from.  So Snape, with his insider knowledge of LV, devises a 
challenge that he will find especially hard.  Of course,      
Quirrel!Mort manages to solve it, so perhaps his logic isn't as bad 
as Snape thinks.  Unless it is Quirrel rather than LV that does the 
solving.  But if it is a weakness of LV's, perhaps it'll be 
exploited in later books?

Hannah (knowing she'll now be presented with a mass of evidence that 
LV is logical after all!)
