I’m not sure if they are “conscientious”, “Kind”, difficult to classify, or lacking traits of the other houses. If it’s conscientious, Hermione belongs there and Neville does not.
I prefer “Kind”, because that is the trait that complements the other houses nicely—in real life, human motivations do seem to classify nicely into [ambition, altruism, knowledge-seeking, justice-seeking] …but both the cannon and hpmor seem confused on whether Hufflepuff is “altruistic” or simply “rule abiding”...
