If Harry is actually in love with Hermione, is apologizing his best move?
The ‘love’ hypothesis was mostly motivated as an explanation in the case that Harry is not making his best move.
Or is he apologizing for something other than setting things up so that it was likely that she’d be dropped?
I’m pretty sure he’s apologizing for a whole package of evil regardless of the dropping. I doubt Harry planned that that particular contingency would happen, and so I would also believe that he’s genuinely remorseful that she actually fell.

I was bringing in Hermione’s point of view as a possibly interesting part of the situation.
