Recall that the younger version of Harry woke up in a strange place, aged and without an eye. For a whole year he lived locked up, he didn't even have a proper chair. Harry could have become despondent, but he immersed himself in lepidopterology. And then he was nearly drowned, and he could have been legitimately angry, but he remained polite, explaining that he wouldn't work for people who drowned their employees. And he also put the puppy's life above his own, even though he was just a goddamn nerd, not a secret service agent, not military. Mentally he's barely over 20 years old, but he's so soft-hearted, reasonable, and polite.
