Besides which there's no way for Harry to get, well . . . 'back to the 
future' because the future he came from no longer exists.  Remember in 
PoA, the TTing H&H relive the entire three hours that they TTed so 
Harry would have to stay in the past and relive all those years till he 
arrived at the time he TTed.  

Several years ago I read a rather clever fanfic in which Hermione 
has 'another' one of those time turner accidents winding up in the 
Marauder era (of course); DD is unable to find a way back for her, so 
they invent the character Sybill (Sibyl?) Trelawney. Hermione lives 
this way (in disquise and reclusive) until the date of her TT accident 
and is then able to reveal her true identity because young Hermione is 
gone.  It was one of the few TT fics that was actually finished.  
Mainly because the author kept it short; a one-off IIRC.
