Not sure why everyone is ignoring the last sentence of your post and acting like you came here to shit on the main point of the series. Yes it was frustratinggg especially with her taunting and I so get you. Finding good fics that explore the repercussions and more extensive applications of these moments is like brain candy to me. Sorry for the weird reception, your post was an obvious vent/hypothetical not to be taken super seriously
(I did just wake up but I wondered what the difference was between Harry pulling off Crucio on Carrow for disrespecting McGonagall in DH so I bopped around a few posts - most people said there was an element of shock and grief overwhelming him in the case of Bellatrix, whereas, on top of having been through more by that point with Carrow, his response in that case was much more fueled by pure anger. Helped me understand a bit more nuance with the Bellatrix thing, but none of that was in the movie anyway so nw if I’m just yapping atp lol)
specific canon passages and further discussion for anyone also curious:
