   Wasted opportunity both symbolically and literally. Fandom would have   
   been in an eternal whine if she hadn't written something but Ms.   
   Rowling could have done so much, much more in furthering her   
   alchemical aims. :(   
      
   The Epilogue was written as if she couldn't wait to finish the series.   
   A shame imho.
