And I think that act of bodily elimination together with such acts like brushing their teeth, bathing, taking shower (okay, Harry was in the bath once or twice lol) are exceptions, because really how many writers do mention it unless it is specifically needed for the plot?

But if writer did not say it did it happen?

My answer is of course it did not happen, otherwise how we are supposed to discuss the story if your story is different from what author wanted to tell us?

I did and probably will disagree with the interpetations of what actually can be considered a hint based on which our imaginations run wild, but if there is no sign of something in the book whatsoever, not even a hint to based it on, yes, I would say that it did not happen.

I want to say that Harry apparated on Mars for the fun of it. Are you really saying that it could have happened?

JMO,
