My feeling is Harry doesn’t want everyone knowing that he, 11-year-old warrior of light, killed 36 death eaters. People would always be wondering if you were evil after that.
But they’d also not take him for granted the way they had Munroe and Dumbledore, accepting their heroism like princes, with a sneer for the lateness of the payment. *blinks innocently*
More seriously: I only meant the closed circle he’s talking to: Moody, Bones, McGonagall, and he still wouldn’t have to admit to killing anyone, just let Bones know that Quirrel wasn’t a good guy and Harry deserves the credit for the Light winning. We can still have Voldemort supposedly killing everyone else.
