Put together, Statement A and C are logically incompatible. If your meaning
was that Hermione does not need to assist the boys, how is giving them that
independence with a planner offensive? If your meaning is that Hermione enjoys
assisting the boys, why would she reduce her role with a planner?

You cannot prove Statement B but you use it as a bizarre justification for
gratuitous violence and make an illogical link between Statements A and C.
There is no canon for Statements A,B, or C.
