Time Tuners can’t change events. MacGonagal says that when she gives it to him and the story doesn’t say otherwise, yet.
Which doesn’t (necessarily) mean you don’t go back in time and change events anyway. You will never change events but events will be arranged such that this never happens. When you are the kind of person who would do that you may find yourself getting mysterious notes and fortunate coincidences from time to time.
The details of whether or not the above is a wise strategy depends on the nature of the time-travel mechanism, decision theory.
I don’t necessarily endorse a time travel based solution to this particular problem. I haven’t read it am waiting till the cliffhanger is revealed fully before I get into it. I’m not a fan of delays out of my control so I’m applying pre-emptive patience!
