I'm sure Crabbe and Goyle were there backing Malfoy up at the time too!
It occurs to me that if the next book is the Trio and Malfoy having left school, but not Crabbe and Goyle we may never see Crabbe and Goyle again. :(
I'm surprised the editor didn't call her on that.
I swear I've brought this up a million times (it's my new 'You're a woman') but isn't one of the only editors she mentioned the one who asked her why she was making Malfoy good at Occlumency when Harry isn't? Perhaps all the decent editors left around the huge wait for GoF (not that they ever seemed to help with the maths or whatever, but at least the books were under 900 pages) and now all that's left are like, The Leaky Cauldron staff or Steve Kloves or something. 'Sure, fug sounds like a word! More importantly, are you sure you've made Ginny pretty enough?'
