It matters to Harry. It matters very seriously to Harry.

The fact that it is a disruption to the school is a **different** matter and 
I'm not sure Snape should be interfering without Dumbledore's say so.

He is letting his hatred of James colour his interaction with Harry as 
he continues to do so throughout the books.
