It's a very cliched full mark five star review, but I feel the story deserves it. I feel as a critic, I give out way to many 5 star reviews, but as a fan I can't help but do so for good stories. I'll place a TL;DR first and below is a much longer explanation of why this story was so good. TL;DR: This story is an amazing fanfic that the author has turned into his own story. Better than most fanfic and power fantasies, It's an arguably original story, or at least one under the author's control. First off, there are many decent and good stories, this is NOT one of them. This is an AMAZING story. As a fanfic, we the audience know certain plot points. In this same fashion the story resembles one of those do-over go back in time to change history novels. It's the whole trans mitigation thing with a few different elements. About the characters, you call tell the author's biases and interpretation of the original book. The author has strong opinions that very much correlate to mainstream opinions, or at least understandable ones. The story doesn't follow the original to the tee and that's a good thing. The author has his own take, characters are more logical and fleshed out with different motivations, and although it's placed in a Harry Potter setting, it's a wholly different story. I wish more writers in fanfic wrote like this, usurping the main character rather than having secondary roles in a fanfic. Similar stories is a pokemon adventure further exploring logical mechanisms, and an original story "The Simulacrum" on RRL. 10/10 - little bit chunnobu MC.
