a_svirn:
But I didn't say that DH contradicts it. All I say is that at no 
point in the previous six books were we told that all the other 
Cloaks are inferior to the one in Harry's possession. All the pre-DH 
evidence points to the contrary – that they were *like* the Potter's 
heirloom. Ergo Ignatus Peverel and his legacy must be comparatively 
late inspiration.
