I'm competing in a 'tribook tournament' where a Harry Potter fan, Twilight Fan and Percy Jackson fan all attempt to win for their book. I'm representing Harry Potter and the first task is an essay on what I think is the biggest flaw in Harry Potter.

I'm finding it extremely difficult. I've spent the last ten years making up excuses as to why Harry Potter flaws aren't actually flaws. Basically all I've got is deus ex machina, Harry Potter as a character and unoriginality. But I can't actually elaborate on them. Any ideas?
