Pippin:
Except it's not the *exact* same problem, because Harry wasn't
around for the big game in OOP. Ignoring jeers from the Slytherins
is one thing, ignoring the fear that he might flub up in front of
Harry is another. Remember how much trouble he had with his
game before Fred and George left? Harry knows it's all in Ron's head,
but hearing it from Harry would only make it worse, so he shows
him instead.
