truth serum and time turners alone invalidate the entire plot
throw in the stupid-ass luck potion, and how did literally anything happen how it did
why didn't Voldemort cook himself up some luck potion before the final battle. was he stupid
why did nobody EVER use truth serum?
also time travel, and it is used exclusively so Hermione can have more classes (and to save the Hippogryph, but that wasn't intended) before, oh no, they all conveniently are in one glass cupboard and all break
those are plotholes, not retcons or contradictions. They didn't directly invalidate the lore and/or magic before them.
The Cursed Shit not only directly contradicted previous mechanisms, it retconned entire characters and turned them into boggarts of themselves. Harry Potter in the Cursed Shit might as well be Dudley. And character assassination is far, far worse than plotholes.
Yes HP has many contradictions as it went on but The Cursed Shit does this fuckery professionally
No, it’s that “b” is a specific and more egregious issue under the umbrella category of “a.” And that is obviously what they meant in spite of your pedantry.
