Why couldn't Harry transform into anyone else at the start?
I'm sorry if i missed the explanation.
When they all changed into Harry to have better chances of smuggling the real Harry, why not have him turn into a mouse or whatever and have Hagrid transport him?
Or just give him a full face helmet on? I don't know, it seems like there were plenty of safer options and they jumped to the clone strategy too easily.
I get that they wanted a cool visual effect but it seemed so incompetent of the people trying to protect him.
