IMHO, the most natural way for them to discover the identity of RAB and some other things was to realize that the only place with a decent library available to them was the Black House. Then they could have looked at all pureblood families starting with "B" and presto, sooner or later came across Regulus. Honestly, it was easy, really easy to avoid all that heavy-handedness. But oh, no, they'd have to do actual research!
Sirius's room - one would have thought that if his parents wanted they could have just painted the walls or covered them with paneling.
Lily's letter shouldn't have been there as Sirius didn't live at home at the time. Moreover it reveals what a useless farce all that supposed resistance was and what idiots they all were. Lily's character was irrevocably destroyed for me here, since her strongest redeeming feature seemed to be her being a hero of resistance, who saved lots of lives from Voldy and the DEs. Ditto the Marauders. Silly me. They were obviously just playing some pretend.
