Chys:

If DD were to have had is smashed before, LV might have done 
something drastic, thinking there was something in it that he 
Definitly missed and would want to move fast to rectify this. I don't 
think that DD could stop the hall of phrophecy records from being 
made and maintained. That's ministry business and not his thing, 
since it's not his property- it's Harry and LV's.

He should have just told Harry that there was something therein the 
DOM, which he had a copy of there at Hogwarts, that LV wanted to get 
his hands on, and that LV would do anything to get Harry to go there 
to get it for him, since only Harry could touch his copy of it. Could 
have told him he would give him DD's copy of it the day he joined the 
Order, and the whole MOM DOM fiasco with Sirius dying wouldn't have 
happened. Harry would have been confused, but he'd have been assured 
of getting it eventually.


I think.
