The secondary metal in pewter is tin or zinc, but the primary element in pewter is LEAD. All the Potterverse mages are suffering from lead poisoning. Lead poisioning causes stupidty and dementia.
Also not a fan of the lightsaber/Death Star thing. (I believe it was the guy who wrote HP and the Methods of Rationality who said it, but I could be wrong.) I much prefer "If you give Frodo a lightsaber, you have to have Sauron react appropriately". Makes for a much better story, I think.
