Yeah it's just like they have never seen anyone writing in a book before so they can't tell the difference between that and magic. The book isn't ordering him to do anything. Does Hermione not realize that she, too, is following orders in books when she reads what's in the instructions there and follows them? Ginny's book had words that appeared magically in response to what she wrote herself for goodness' sakes.
Oh thank you sweet baby flying spaghetti monster! Someone else! I thought I was going crazy when I read that bit in the book: it makes no sense to compare a textbook that a former student has written extra notes in, with the fragment of LV's soul. I mean, wtfh? It's so.... daft. No wonder the Dark Lord got to rise again, they were probably busy chasing cross-eyed kneazles or something...
