This is a well-observed, well-made point. I fully confess, my own irritation with the high-handedness factor prevented me from seeing the equally valid interpretation which you have so insightfully expressed. I'm still in an unforgiving mood on this storyline generally (I don't know if you can tell ), but at least now I can be incrementally less annoyed at Harry!
