But that is not the reason they modify memories. They modify a Muggle
memory to make him forget anything related to magic in order to keep
the WW a secret. Now I agree, I think it is horrible to do so. I agree
they feel condescending towards Muggles. But nobody says that
Obliviation happens because it is good for the Muggle.
