'The only moral growth' ACK. Sorry, but that sort of attitude - 'it's all about X' - makes me cringe no matter what fandom I see it in. I can understand only being into something for the sake of one character, but insisting that said character (or small group of characters ) are the only ones who matter...it just screams 'tunnel vision'.
'Harry is never sorry for anything' - the first thing that leapt to mind was him apologising to Ginny for forgetting she knows what it's like to be possessed. Not to mention reconciling with Ron and Hermione over their various fights and apologising to Dumbledore for losing focus on getting the memory from Slughorn.
Oh, and he flat-out calls Snape 'the bravest man I ever met' (which is up against some impressive competition) and names one of his children after the man. I'd call that pretty mature of him, given that Snape was an accomplice to the murder of both his parents.
