I don't think there's better evidence, mind, I just noticed the directionality. | |

I have edited the answer to make it more clear that I am equating the protections at Hogwarts with those elsewhere. | |

| Jun 23, 2019 at 23:45 | comment | added | DavidW | That was precisely my point! If a standard charm blocked those attempts to apparate, then they tell us nothing about what Hogwarts' effect on an attempt is, because it never reached that point. | |
| Jun 23, 2019 at 15:51 | comment | added | Alex | @DavidW What indicates that those are anything more than the standard anti-apparition charms? | |
| Jun 23, 2019 at 15:26 | comment | added | DavidW | In both of those examples (certainly in the 2nd) it sounds like there is something else blocking them from disapparating, not that they are running into the normal Hogwarts blocking, so I don't know if they give useful information about what happens if someone runs into Hogwarts' own defences. | |
