"Stupider is not a word."
What? Yes it is. It's not even something that people don't say much. In English you can take pretty much any adjective and add "er" or "est" to it. That's normal language.
For some words it's really weird, like "real" would be more appropriately termed "more real" than "realer," but for most words it's perfectly fine to just -er or -est them.
Stupid, stupider, stupidest. Full, fuller, fullest.
There are exceptions, like with just, more just, most just. But more stupid, or most stupid, are generally not used.

thank you for a well thought out and very well written story, despite making Sirius into a horrible cock-blocker.
I appreciate your storytelling skills, thank you for the kindness you show in sharing them here.

Your Dark Lord Dumb-as-a-door free as a bird, they kiss and make up, and the ever pathethic cliche, All is Well.

This letting Dumbledore get off every time is ridiculous. Your stories show he is evil, yet he is allowed to... Never mind, you will not get it at this point. As a writer, you should stick to your plot and characters instead of being influenced by others.

“Does he hold a place in our society any longer? He can certainly no longer contribute …”
Why can a Squib Harry Potter no longer contribute to the Wizarding society? Who made that ridiculous pronouncement? I can see a HUGE area where Squibs could contribute to magical society.
1. They can liaise with the legal arm of Muggle government. Someone such as Harry would be able to give valuable counsel to the Muggle PM about magical crimes and criminals and how they can be dealt with.
2. Imagine the medical contributions Squibs could make by working with magical Healers for certain kinds of accidents and birth defects. They could also bring medical diagnostic equipment into St. Mungo’s to allow Healers to see INTO the brains and bodies and determine more effective treatment plans for people like the Longbottoms.
3. The whole area of mental health could benefit immensely with psychiatrists and counselors.
Wizards are incredibly wasteful when it comes to Human Resources!
“… and it would seem his myriad enemies would be able to harm him more easily if he stayed with us.” Not necessarily. There are Muggle police and military who could utilize Harry’s skills and protect him while doing it. He could also keep track of Muggleborns who have left the Wizarding world and connect them to a network that certainly would have much need of and respect for their skills. Wizards are just so wasteful with important Human Resources.
