Potioncat:
Actually, in support of Pippin, the "best" way implies there were more than two methods discussed. 

Of course, the main reason we're all fired up is that Snape was involved. Would we have reacted differently if we had read that Harry was expecting a low grade on his essay because he disagreed with a topic as taught by McGonagall/Lockhart/Umbridge/Slughorn/etc?
