it's hard to see how a rudderless Draco winds up in the Room of Requirement
trying to capture Harry. And yet, if Draco has come to believe that malice
is not worth killing for, why is he there at all? Yet JKR makes it clear

Crescent:
Actually, I was always under the impression that Draco's entering the room
of requirement was NOT necessarily his choice. He had Crabbe and Goyle who
were as much his guards by that time as his lackeys. If he hadn't gone to
the room of requirement willingly, I assumed they would have turned him
over to the Carrows, Snape, Voldemort–someone who would (presumably) make
Draco very sorry.
