Oh, I think the world Rowling made was interesting, and it helped a lot that the sources she drew inspiration from were very good ones. But to me it always felt like it wouldn't stand up to rigorous inspection. It was like a neat looking sculpture, but you couldn't touch it or look too closely or you'd start to notice the holes, the weak joints, the wobbly foundation, etc. I think she could've done a better job with the North American part, but I never expected her to blow me away with the worldbuilding.

Well we all know how much children love to rigorously inspect fiction.

It's true, most young readers don't, but many adult readers don't necessarily subject their reading material to any in depth analysis, either. That's why I think the series was able to have such a widespread appeal to so many. It's entertaining writing, but not really great worldbuilding. So the people who are looking for entertaining writing are happy, but if you go looking for solid worldbuilding... well.

I think the structure she built is perfectly well suited to the job it's meant to do. It fits fine for the aesthetic and emotional parts if the narrative and that's all it needs to do. I agree it's ultimately ramshackle but built to purpose. If she'd done the same thing with North America I'd be fine.
