Quite. Should we therefore conclude that the appearance of time travel
in PoA is actually just to make us aware that it exists within the
Potterverse?

My current theory is that time travel will be a key part of DH, either
in back story or the main plot. (For example, in a universe with time
travel, where a great enemy suddenly vanished after a confrontation
with a young family, is it even conceivable that nobody travelled back
in time to see what really happened? I don't think that it is.)
