Goodness, I think the list has missed the two main ones.

Anarchist political practise - Dumbledore's Army, using people from
three houses, so some anarchist social practise as well, also includes
defending werewolves in society, SPEW and so forth.

Revelation - exposing hidden things or people (Crouch Jr.), the
animagi and the werewolf, Sirius as innocent, Quirrel as agent of Tom,
location of Chamber of Secrets, Slughorn's fogged memory, Crouch Sr.
as imperioed, the return of Voldemort, the history and personality of
Voldemort, Hagrid's innocence, Tom's culpability, Snape's culpability
(in the bar), the prophecy orb, Harry under the cloak, to Moody and
Moody/Crouch and Albus, and so on and on and on, all going back to the
Dursley's abusive treatment of Harry being exposed and overturned by
the discovery of Harry as wizard. The truth will out, and Rowling
certainly seems to be partisan about getting it out, doesn't she?!?!
(How'd you guys miss this?)
