Ah, good. He came up for air... ;->
First of all, Mudbloods weren't universally welcomed into the wizarding
community.
Hg would have made a brilliant academic or attorney in Muggleville. So,
through her parent's breeding, education and expectations, Hg could have
led, I think, a fuller life or more rewarding life on the Muggle side of
the tracks.
Granted, there is merit in what you write about the relative ease of
life for an accomplished wizarding family. But I suspect it was not as
rewarding a life as Hg could have had.
Ron, Ginny, et. al., had no possibility of being fully functioning &
successful Muggles, despite Ron's driver's license. HP fled that life.
But Hg could have chosen either.
It's all speculation, of course.
