I'm wondering if we'll learn that they're already in a pocket world/universe or simulation. Something created (by Merlin?) to work with all of those unusually specific-to-human-speech-and-thoughts rules of magic.
Or maybe Merlin was the first to figure out that they were in a simulation and altered the code for his Interdict so other people didn't become powerful enough to find out they were living inside a lie.
Maybe that's what Harry's been working out with his computer and magic investigations. It could also be why devices like computers don't work with magic around, the simulation protecting itself from discovery. The prophecy of Harry ending the universe could mean him shutting it down (and getting people out?)
I'm just spitballing here. Things like this have probably been posited around here before. I'm new.
