For most of us, we were exposed to the series when we were children, and either miserable or just bored. It's not about wanting to be a 'child again,' it's about a sense of...hope and wonder that we wanted and didn't have, a dream we fell in love with because it sounded so much cooler than our actual lives.

The books fundamentally are children's books. I loved them dearly and read some of them maybe, literally hundreds of times, but I haven't in years, because I too am an adult now, even if I mostly don't feel like it.

I don't think you're wrong to like what you like, but I think you're making a lot of unfounded assumptions based on a couple of easy-to-see wacky public behaviors like mocking up letters being a cool thing some dedicated nerds do. It doesn't mean ~going to school~ is the allure, it means ~going to school~ is the easy-to-talk-about framing device for a whole alluring world.
