Have you ever read Philosopher’s Stone? I hadn’t when I first read HPMOR, so I totally missed the Quirrell thing, but it’s pretty blatant once you’re handed the answer on a canonical platter.
Should I read your comment or will it spoil the fun? I’m assuming that it is possible to read and understand HPMOR without having to read the canon? So far I’m doing fine. Although I also watched the last HP movie so I have some info from the canon.
If you’ve read HPMOR and watched Deathly Hallows, it will not be much of a surprise. However, it has not been explicitly stated by any of the material you’ve read/watched to date, so it is technically a spoiler.
That said, HPMOR does get better when you start getting all the canon in-jokes, so I would recommend consuming the originals at some point. They’re actually pretty good(even if the first two are basically kid’s novels).

I didn’t read the canon.
