Because you cannot send information back further than that. So if the troll was sent from six hours forward, you cannot tell people further back about it. Uhm. I just realized this cannot be a strict prohibition, or you could only have one time turner per six light hour radius volume.. Okay, so all that accomplishes is that you cannot send anyone back that knows about the troll...Yanking in some random member of the order of the pheonix and telling them to swap out harrys first aid kit, without being spotted, might still work.
That’s information, and it is in some significant sense information about the troll. The only people with the ability to do that would be people without enough information to know it’s a good idea.
I wonder whether you could explain the way of it to them and then obliviate them so that they only remember the decision to do it but not the why.
Or perhaps you could have someone who agreed to follow your orders without knowing why, specifically for the purpose of doing things with time-turners, rotate the duty through your inner circle so you don’t end up with a drone.
