From later down the same thread, it's really striking to me how much more cautious the Order is in Y1. Tonks could not possibly have been more ready and willing to sign up with the Order, and people are so hesitant. (I mean, they did recruit her. But Arthur doesn't want to recruit her to do anything that would get her into trouble.)
Sally-Anne liked to make snarky comments about how badly the Order needed some Slytherins, but what really strikes me here is how badly they need a bunch of teenagers who are convinced they're indestructable.
