I think that Dumbledore and Harry were too quick to conclude that the Dementor could just be used as a distraction

True, and somewhat understated. Dumbledore defeated Grindelwald and led a hard fought defence against Voldemort and his death eaters. Why on earth does he need to call in an eleven year old with magic cold/angry powers just to come up with the thought 'maybe it is a distraction'?

This Dumbledore has been crippled to beyond all recognition.
