Don't undermine his sacrifice! He couldn't play Quidditch, either! My heart quite literally hurt reading about his pain.
I bet that's how Dumbledore conduces* interviews, too. "Have you got a big heart?"
Then it's 'Prove it. What have you done for me and mine lately?' God, can you imagine being an applicant in the WW? You'd prepare all your teachers certificates (if they have such a thing. After all, school inspections are evil in JKR's head - nothing to do with her having been a teacher? ZOMG they were so mean, they expected competence! - , rather than every day and necessary here in the real world.) and the interview would go 'What house were you in? Gryffindor? You're hired! Now go endanger my students.'
