I had seen a comment denigrating Card’s Ender relying on appeals to authority, but I notice that MORHarry also likes to bargain with his Lived Boy Status. You use what you have! I have a problem with neither.
It would also be trivial to do any permutation of unrealistic, clever plans with the time turner (A succession of remotely launched pies to Snape, the resulting implied hanging anvil, and complete lack of culpability would have done incalculable damage- A pie based Death Note resolution seems alarmingly Yudkowskian, now that I consider it) but I’m very excited to watch the desperation thrive. Tangible escalation of themes? Who could have dreamed of cogent fiction? I enjoy accidentally seeing ideological parallels to Snicket, Dahl etc., childhood fiction authors that have weathered the test of time a BIT more graciously than Just JKing Arowling
Now if you’ll excuse me I’ll be trying to think of a human issue that can’t be solved by a universally ranged pie device (from the Geneva conventions alone, I could imagine it getting its money’s worth. Oh, 2020.....)
