| Jun 18, 2018 at 21:54 | comment | added | corsiKa | @Anoplexian That is very true. Of course, she can use 50 pound notes for tissue to wipe away the tears from such inconsistencies, can't she? | |
| Jun 18, 2018 at 21:35 | comment | added | Anoplexian | JK Rowling is terrible at making her universe logical in any sense of the word. In fact, the second most popular tag on SFF.SE is pointing out and trying to solve the inconsistencies in her world. Many of those questions end up as "It doesn't really follow logic, but here's a possible explanation". | |

| Jun 18, 2018 at 4:19 | comment | added | JoL | I remember seeing an interview on YouTube between J.K. Rowling and Daniel Radcliffe (actor of the Harry Potter character) where Rowling mentioned about how she made sure "there was always a logic in the magic however strange it became". This relates to Henry Taylor's answer (and possibly others; I haven't read them yet) in that the important part is to be consistent and that the story must make sense in relationship to itself. | |
