That sounds like a cached thought. Bureaucracies can be programmed to have relatively well-understood side-effects of their survival. For instance, McDonald’s is a bureaucracy that has a side-effect of producing hamburgers; a military is a bureaucracy that has a side-effect of politically inconvenient people getting dead.
What about the other Aurors during TSPE? I thought they did pretty well overall.
Madam Bones, yes. The others seem average. Not owl-bomb-proof unless they’re given regulations about it.
Fortunately, things like that are why bureaucracy exists.
Bureaucracy is self-preserving. It doesn’t really have other builtin goals than that.

That’s a good point. My comment was overbroad and oversimplified.
Avoiding assassination is generally considered to assist with self-preservation.
