А неофициальная любовь не такая сильная, что ли?
А те, кого любишь, обязательно должны быть хорошими?

Роулинг сказала кое-что очень важное о Драко Малфое
цитатыEven when faced with a weak and wandless Dumbledore, Draco found himself unable to deliver the coup de grâce because, in spite of himself, he was touched by Dumbledore’s kindness and pity for his would-be killer.

Although Draco had still not rid himself of the hope of returning the family to their former high position, his inconveniently awakened conscience led him to try - half-heartedly, perhaps, but arguably as best he could in the circumstances - to save Harry from Voldemort when the former was captured and dragged to Malfoy Manor. During the final battle at Hogwarts however, Malfoy made yet another attempt to capture Harry and thereby save his parents’ prestige, and possibly their lives. Whether he could have brought himself to actually hand over Harry is a moot point; I suspect that, as with his attempted murder of Dumbledore, he would again have found the reality of bringing about another person’s death much more difficult in practice than in theory.

His Christian name comes from a constellation - the dragon - and yet his wand core is of unicorn.
This was symbolic. There is, after all - and at the risk of re-kindling unhealthy fantasies - some unextinguished good at the heart of Draco.

для меня это очень важно. То, что он не смог убить Дамблдора и выдать Гарри, можно было трактовать двояко. Была вполне правдоподобная версия, что он обыкновенный трус - не сумел закончить начатое, не хотел появления Волдеморта. Его трусость в каноне не раз подчеркивается.
И тут Роулинг говорит, что нет, дело не в этом, дело в совести:
his inconveniently awakened conscience led him to try - half-heartedly, perhaps, but arguably as best he could in the circumstances - to save Harry from Voldemort
Это сильно меняет представления о персонаже. Все-таки Драко не совсем пропащий человек, его можно любить официально.
И ЭТО ТЕПЕРЬ КАНОН!
