There's something to be said about how DE goes about using Harry's amnesia as a plot device. On its own it's the thing that allows us to discover the world alongside Harry, however the story provides us enough tidbits and insinuations, so that is plain to see how much of a trainwreck HDB was. So, unlike many stories, in which the main objective is to uncover our character's past, Harry’s fear of his deeds and inner scars steers our curiosity outwards, towards the world.

My problem with the whole Somerton apology, is that his actions were arguably malicious! If you take several steps to hide what you've done, if you start vague-tweeting at people who later have to hide their presence online because of harassment, if you dismiss lgbtq+ creator's concerns by just deleting the bits of the videos where you stole from them, you're not being "lazy", you're actually putting in a lot of work so that your version of events remains the only narrative!
