Doddiemoemoe here:

Each time I reread GOF I always wonder about the "boy outside"...

I think it may well have been "time-turner Harry"....Only in that it 
may have prevented the whole "bone of the father" experience for 
him, but then again it may not as Volde's father may have died 
before anyhow...(seems like the type of mistake that could well have 
happened during one of Harry's exploits--(what if he 'borrowed 
hermione's turner AFTER she fell asleep in the bed that night--or 
early the next morn. in POA?!?...)

Did Hermione realize something was amiss and turn it back in?  She 
seems to be managing well in her studies..why drop her simplest 
class? Other than she would have had to to have engergies for spew, 
knitting elf clothes and keeping up with Harry..

As much as we love to chastise Hermione on morality...her standards 
of ethics certainly bear closer examination.
