Those scratches can be found both in his living room and in his bedroom, however not in the hallway in front of his room, nor in his secret drawing room.

So, I've been wondering if these scratches might be from his cane. What speaks in favour of this are the regular intervals between the marks, and also that they can't be found in his drawing room because that's the way he has to enter:

He probably only uses his cane when there's no other way, as we all know, he's a very proud man who won't admit any weakness, or rely on any help, which leads me to another conclusion/question, related to the location of his room.

The faculty tower can be reached via the floo network. However, his room is on the second floor and can only be accessed by taking the stairs. He obviously started teaching at Hogwarts shortly after his injury, which probably was way worse back then. Why not give him a room on the ground floor? In a world of magic, it would have been easy to swap rooms with another teacher.

My thesis is that he probably even asked for this particular room because it's the only one with no next-door neighbours, and no one living beneath, as seen in this picture:

My idea is that he knew he would have to use his cane or even his wheelchair, and he still does. That's why they can still be found in his room. However, he doesn't want anybody to know. If he uses his cane often enough to leave marks on the floor, neighbours next door or beneath would probably hear it, so he made sure to get a room without that risk, even if it means worse accessibility.

Sharp's wheelchair and his cane are missing in his room in the Switch version of Hogwarts Legacy. Give my man some rest, Nintendo.

Fr, this annoys me on so many levels. Seriously, what about inclusion and raising awareness of disability in general? It might be an overreaction, but just why? Why change a design that already existed?

No. Humans are animals as much as the fish and the bear. We are pack animals who have survived by strong bonds and community.

Do not buy the lie that humans are inherently evil. Societies can trick you into believing this, but it's not the truth of humanity.

Humans crave being together, sharing together, and thriving together.

He lived to between 30 and 45. An incredible age for an ancient hominid. This man couldn't have been a 'sTrOnG pRoViDeR mALe' and yet he lived to the Neanderthal equivalent of mid-80s. Why? Because his family must've taken care of him. His broken eye showed signs of healing, and his withered arm was amputated (perhaps one of the earliest examples of surgery). Despite his existence providing no 'logical benefit' he survived. Because he was loved.
