And it IS shocking to me, because it is not like I forgot the events of these chapters, but why did I not realise that while I was getting annoyed that Hermione never learned the humility and the possibility that she can be wrong in spectacular way, she just may have been learning a lesson in non-spectacular way in this chapters about being wrong?

Joey:
I think she did realize that she could go wrong in a spectacular way even when she realized that Draco was indeed doing a DE's job on LV's orders like Harry had surmised [HBP Climax - scenes in the hospital wing when Harry arrives post DD's death and explains what all had happened]
I wonder if she was learning this lesson in chapters 21-22 DH because she tells Harry that the visit was a complete waste of time like Godric Hollow and scoffs at Harry's ideas about the Hallows.
I think she learnt a lesson (in a spectacular way, may be) about being wrong when she learns that Harry was indeed right about the Elder Wand [even Harry pointedly notices that she looks "flabbergasted" when Ollivander confirms the existence of Elder Wand]
Cheers,
~Joey :-)
