Healer Pontiff's fate could easily have been Harry's if he hadn't started to think about things other than Healing. That's one reason I wanted him to have the conversation with her, rather than just the letter; he needed the point pounded home for him.
Wow, I'm really glad you liked it for that reason. I originally planned to have Harry spend more time thinking about/learning pure-blood culture in this fic, but in the end, with so much going on, I just didn't have time, so had to content myself with descriptions of the Manor and how he adapted the "Malfoy rules" to his own use.
