I'm not sure what point you're making.

We can also say that the real reason it's not gleaming is because it doesn't exist at all; there is no blade, only words referring to a blade that doesn't exist.

But why would we say either of those things?

It's not a deep point. The reference to Harry's having read such an odd fact just struck me, that's all.
