SO yea, you could go either route ... would be appropriate *nods*

you know this has always been the part that felt counter-intuitive to me: Pure/Halfblood+ Muggle= Half-blood (make sense) but Pureblood+ Muggleborn= Halfblood?
why would that child be Halfblood if
both parents are magical?
and think about it. if Harry who had a Muggleborn mom and a Pureblood Dad was still a "Halfblood", what does that speak of with Tom Riddle-- who had a Pureblood mom but Muggle dad?
should it be said that Harry's blood quality be "better" compared to Voldemort's?
methinks JKR needs to come with the rules of what classifies bloodlines (should be easy, she was able to come up with the Transfiguration Law), because right now as it stands, it seems that one can only be called a "Pureblood" if direct magical lineage is unbroken from the
grandparent level backwards, not from
parents, which is the most logical point of determining lineage.
