It is interesting to me that JKR has chosen this contradiction. She
spends six books with DD telling everyone who will listen that love is
the strongest magic, nothing is more powerful than love. However she
puts Harry in the safest place magically, the Dursleys. A place
without love and only blood protection. Voldemort states he knows
nothing of Love magic in Book 6. This should have been another
advantage. JKR comes close to negating one of the themes of the series
for the reader who notices. Love was not strong enough to protect
Harry or he would have been placed with Sirius or Hagrid or a host of
other people. Nope, love did not carry the day. The magic DD sneered
at in Voldemort's cave, blood magic, is what worked best. I wonder if
JKR has noticed this contradiction.
