Juli now: Are you being ironic? sarcastic?

Katie:
If disarming someone was enough to gain control of their wand...
 
Juli (before):
I think wand ownership only changes in a real duel. 

Lee:
No, Juli, I think Katie's on the right track. How many times in seven 
books have we seen Expelliarmus used for real, and there was never any  
hint of a change of ownership.

Juli now:
You're absolutely right, but ALL those times, the wand was handed back 
to the original owner, therefore (I guess) giving back its alliegance 
to the original master.

Anyway, those itsy bitsy details don't bother me so much, all I care 
for was that Harry won the Elder Wand from Draco when he took his 
Hawthrone wand, and Draco had taken it from Dumbledore. If there're 
inconsistencies, fine by me.
