Exactly. Let's stay within the realm of what Hermione herself thinks will
happen, which is that her parents will be tortured if they stay in England, and
her reasons for depriving them of their memories of their daughter and their own
lives, not just what she's told them about Harry. <SNIP>.

Sure, let's do that. Let's stay within realm of what Hermione herself thinks will happen and her reasons why she did that. The reason of protecting them from grief if their daughter dies is not in canon, as Zara listed upthread.

The example about muggle camera was brought up NOT as something that happened in canon but as analogy of DE learning to use something that can serve their main goal to kill Harry and his friends. After all DE were not above get acquainted with Muggle government and putting spies there, right? I do not think learning how something of Muggle functions is so different. IMO of course.
