Random832:
I was saying that _without_ the vanishing cabinet, Voldemort viewing
this seriously as an attempt to kill DD doesn't make sense - and we
therefore don't even _consider_ that angle at first, since we don't
know about the vanishing cabinet - and then some of us may be too
emotionally invested in "Voldemort planned the whole thing to get
Draco killed for revenge on Lucius" to consider the alternative when
the facts changed.
