Dumbledore says her mind wouldn’t take the strain. To be entirely honest, I doubt he’s exaggerating. If Hermione came out of Azkaban alive (yes, if), I’d put her chances of still being sane or curably insane at <10%.
True, but I figured I’d stick the qualifier in anyways, for the sake of precision.
(It should also be noted that a young person who’s ruined for life may actually be worth more than a dead person, since a dead person doesn’t need to be cared for for the next several decades).
