Plot hole?

[heidi]

At the end of HBP, why does Harry not grab a broomstick at the top of the Astronomy Tower and use it to catch snape and Draco?

Is this a post I need to edit to include my *ew, maths!* icon? Or is it just plot and her need to show what was happening in the school taking precedence?

I got the impression that if it WASN'T drunk, it'd either simply reappear nthe basin or somethng worse would happen. Maybe wake up the whole lake. *shrugs*
