I have to come in here and agree with you Steve and add in my
thoughts.
Harry was in the middle of a war. He had to survive and he knew
that Carrow or his sister would summon Voldemort, so I think he
just reacted to stop that and of course to revenge the spitting
on one of the teachers he had a lot of affection and respect for.
I have no problem with the use of the curse..
