You mean the plot point that Harry Potter tested the Magic hypothesis? I don't think most plot points in the introductions of stories really count as spoilers.

Yeah, that's not a spoiler any more than "Obi-Wan Kenobi is a Jedi" is a spoiler.

A "Jedi"? Obi-Wan Kenobi?

I wonder if you mean old Ben Kenobi. I don't know anyone named Obi-Wan, but old Ben lives out beyond the dune sea. He's kind of a strange old hermit.

Ah, of course. That's fine, then.

Although you might want to let EY know that someone posted unobfusticated spoilers for ... Chapter 10, was it? - in violation of community standards. ;)
