Yes, that would have been a better story. Especially if that Hermione learned some hard lessons about limits and respecting other people's autonomy.

It would have been a better story if anyone other than characters who aren't supposed to be sympathetic ever learned a hard lesson about anything.

But yeah, it's sad to see glimpses of what could have been with an author who was willing to take a few more risks and really think things through.
