MusicalBetsy here:
Maybe in her situation it's okay for others to see the time-turned
Hermione AS LONG AS no one sees BOTH Hermiones at the same time.
After all, that would make anyone wonder what the heck was going on.
This is just a guess, BTW.

MusicalBetsy again:
Okay, another guess. Maybe the Marauder's Map doesn't pick up time
turned people? Possibly? Maybe? Cause it's the only explanation
that works??
MusicalBetsy, just trying to fix any plot holes so she can go back to
enjoying the books without anything getting in her way...
