LGBT+ Representation for the Young Demographic
There has been plenty of discussion regarding the representation of the LGBT+ community. However, one of the points that people seem so confident in is the idea that kids wouldn't be able to understand what it means to be gay or some other sexuality that isn't heterosexual.

Ravenclaw or Pukwudgies
During the release of each Harry Potter book, and the years after, readers all around the world believed that there were only three wizarding schools in existence, and they were all in Europe: Durmstrang, Beauxbatons, and Hogwarts. All that really mattered was Hogwarts. Of course knowing the inner workings of the school for the most part helps with its popularity; readers will know the types of classes, teachers, layout of the grounds, how to get into Hogwarts, and most importantly how to be sorted into one of four houses.
