I'm sorry, I know it's unkind, but... that's really funny. Just because the book was released so long ago - in some ways I think it's more that you never would have heard someone mention it in all that time, it just seems so unlikely.

It's okay though! I think everyone has those blind spots and weird little things they just never notice, it doesn't make you stupid or slow. These things happen. Just random little meaningless stuff.

Maybe they're a new-ish fan? Or they weren't in the fandom? Not all huge HP fans were - I've been surprised at some of the insights and/or questions non-fandom fans have had before, then I remember I only figured them out after about 87 HP forum threads, the Lexicon and "clues for the _____th book" websites.

I've been re-reading PoA, though, and I've spotted new things that make me wonder if they're actually insightful or just obvious to other HP fans. (Like Harry hearing Lily's death being an allusion to JKR constantly remembering her own mother's death. Did everyone else get there first?)

Oh yeah, that's fair enough, I didn't think of that.

I still think it's kind of funny, though. Not that it is in any way a failing of the OP, it's just kind of a funny thing.

I hadn't thought about it, but it makes sense given that the dementors are a metaphor for depression
