[Snape is the godfather? ]
The author is curious, why do so many readers think Snape is Draco's godfather? It's not mentioned in the original work. This is just a common setting in fan works, but doesn't anyone think this setting is unreasonable? Or does everyone have some misunderstanding about the meaning of the Godfather?
In the original book, it is true that Sirius is Harry's godfather, but Sirius and James are good brothers who trust each other in life and death, and are closer than real brothers. This is evident from the fact that James rejected Dumbledore to become the Secret Keeper and chose Sirius.
Does anyone think that Lucius and Snape have reached this kind of life-and-death relationship? The two of them just have a good personal relationship at best, right? The author really can't imagine Lucius entrusting his son to Snape...
A godfather has the responsibility to set a good example and guide the growth of his children. If Snape was a godfather, he would undoubtedly have failed in his duty. Draco had never criticized or corrected Draco for so many childish behaviors in school. .....

[Trace on the wand]
This is also not from the original work, but a common setting in fan works.
The author feels it is quite unreasonable.
If the trace was on the wand, how could there be a plot about Dobby framing Harry? If the Ministry of Magic was monitoring wands, shouldn't they be able to see that Harry's wand had not performed any magic?
Traces of silk were a setting introduced in the seventh book, so it is very likely that in the early days, traces of silk were just a vague concept in Rowling's mind, without detailed treatment, and it was not until the seventh book that she tried to perfect the concept.
Refer to Chapter 13 of Book 6, the original text is as follows:
"At Hogwarts," Dumbledore continued, "we teach you not only to use magic, but to control it. You used your magic in that way, I believe unintentionally, but that was our The school will never teach it, and it will never be tolerated. You are not the first, and you will not be the last, to let your magic get out of control. But you should know that students can be expelled from Hogwarts, and the Ministry of Magic — Yes, there is a Ministry of Magic — and will punish offenders more severely. Every new wizard must accept that once he enters our world, he must obey our laws."
The key point is the last sentence. As long as you enter the wizarding world, you must obey the wizard's laws, which means that the wizard's laws will officially take effect.
It can be guessed that there is an alchemical item in the Ministry of Magic, maybe in the shape of a map, maybe in another shape, that can detect magic around underage children with magical talents - this kind of item is not a fabrication, Hogwart Here lies the pen of acceptance and the book of admission.
After the little wizard's magic riots, he chooses to enter the world of wizards (that is, after agreeing to enroll in Hogwarts), this magical law and magic detection system will take effect on the little wizard. This detection system should be a range detection. For example, if magic appears where Harry lives, the Ministry of Magic will know (for example, Crazy Eyes Moody said that if a spell is cast to take Harry away, the Ministry of Magic will know). But the Ministry of Magic will not know the identity of the caster, it will only know that magic has occurred in that area.
It can be seen that the purpose of trace silk is not only to monitor underage wizards for violating the confidentiality law, but can even be used to monitor all underage wizards, including whether the children of the Weasley family usually practice combat magic at home, and children from dark wizard families. Do you practice black magic at home, etc...?
Hermione did say that she practiced magic at home before the first year of school, but this was not illegal because she had not yet enrolled in Hogwarts and had not received a notice from the Ministry of Magic that minors were not allowed to use magic in private. But the Ministry of Magic knew that she had practiced magic. Assuming that she was practicing the Unforgivable Curse, she would definitely be in trouble.
