There are numerous hints in the books that while not as powerful as
Morty or DD, Sevvy was in the same league. In any case, I think that one
of the themes of the books which, unfortunately, was not as well
resolved as the others, was the way that the House system could do more
harm than good, and the need for more cooperation between the Houses.
Yes, Sevvy made his choice, but a whole slew of friends telling him how
great he was trumped one girlfriend who was almost ashamed to publicly
admit that she was his friend (note that Hermoine and Ginny had no
problem being friends with Luna).
