Now Astrofiammante replies:

So here's another way of looking at it. From the point of view of
plotting the books, of ratcheting up the narrative tension, of
generating sympathy from us on behalf of gentle-giant Hagrid, and
hard-done-by Lupin, and falsely-imprisoned Sirius and so on, doesn't
it actually help no end that 'our' boys and girls (ie the Order) are
the underdogs?
