An alternate interpretation would be that they're 16-year-old boys
brought up to treat Muggles as inferior who treat them as equals

They made no move to ask him to reverse it. And they could have hidden
it - or maybe it would have worn off in a matter of days, but their
zealotry against all things magic led them to a perceived need to
remove it ASAP.
