The probability that you have no grasp on the situation is high enough to justify an easy, simple, harmless test.
And I'd appreciate it if spoilers for the story were ROT13'd or something - I haven't read it.
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.
