Alla:

I totally understand. I think I would do everything to keep my niece 
from doing something like this BUT I find it realistic still - in a 
sense that there are examples of the parents sending their kids to 
war. Your attitude is closer to me, but I respect theirs as well.

And and as possible alternate scenario I also think that they know ( 
Lily and Marauders) that Harry would do it no matter what and that is 
why they sort of have no choice since they want to ease his last 
minutes not to make it harder on him by arguing with him.

Speculating of course.

Magpie:
No, that's trademark you lose by not defending it. You can't lose
copyright by not defending it. Though I agree that some authors are
vocally against fanfic.:

Alla:
While you cannot literally lose copyright ( and talking only from what 
I remember in class, I may have forgotten even the basics), I think 
that if you do not defend it, it somehow gets harder when it is time 
to renew them. I can be wrong.

Magpie:
But if we're talking about the encyclopedia I support Rowling there. I
don't think she's being unreasonable at all. Fanfic is in a grey area
(with the understanding that people on either side think it's black or
white!)--I don't think fanfic is copyright infringement myself, but
Rowling is one of the authors who's supportive of it.

Alla:

Yes she is we agree :)
