Alla:

Annoying and bothersome? I beg to differ. If Harry's inquiries bothered 
Ron and Hermione a bit less, Ron may have not ended up almost dead, IMO.

And Harry's gut did turn out to be absolutely correct, did it not?

It seems to me that Harry cannot win, he is wrong when he does not go 
to adults with his concerns and when he does to to pretty much 
everybody with his concerns, he is wrong too.

JMO,

Alla,

who is still gets angry at DD for not stopping Draco, if he knew about 
his plans and putting the lifes of many students in danger.
