I'm 99% sure a male writing student wrote them. She does not have the empathy required to write male characters and it's clear with every statement she publicly gives.
The whole thing about Harry being worried about Ron being mad about him dating Ginny was stupid. Especially since Harry knew Ron knew Ginny had a crush on Harry before they even met.
The movies seemed to deliberately cut out the entire SPEW arc, and I can see why ... too red-pilled. The lesson there is that Hermoine mistook Dobby for an AVERAGE house-elf (which is what the movie-makers want the audience to think, too.) However, the books make it VERY clear that Dobby is a fucking oddball of his society, and he is openly despised by the Hogwarts house-elves for it (AND by one who had been fired by Crouch.) There's also clear allusions that the mistreatment Dobby experienced (at the hands of a couple of genuine true-believer Death Eaters) was also not "just a matter of course" (same for the weird shit in the Black house.)
Basically, the house elves are happy slaves; it's their culture.

I mean I haven't read the books, but in the movies Harry sure acts like a girl
