Having not read that TVTropes entry, my first assumption was it was a Mass Effect reference, wherein an insignificant side plot slowly grows to consume the whole narrative. Which does kinda work for HP. The jarring tone shift due to previous published art works better, though.

All 4 houses have names that describe the personalities of every person in the house. One is clearly evil. No adult should be taking this stuff seriously, even if they read it as a kid. It's baffling.

One of the houses is "Hufflepuff." The master wizard is called "Dumbledore." It's clearly written for 10 year olds.
