Except that Dudley wasn't their classmate, was he? He did not live 
in a world where a broken bone can be mended by a few murmured words 
and most grievous wounds close themselves with an aid of 
some "foolish wand-waiving". He did not know what to expect from 
wizards and his experience had taught him to expect the very worst. 
After all the pig-tail he'd been awarded with hadn't been "self-
limiting".  In fact he had no way of knowing whether he'd survive or 
not. He could have died from the shock of it. He could have 
sustained a severe psychological trauma. Why, he probably *did* 
sustain a severe psychological trauma. Who knows what he remembered 
when a Dementor approached.
