Yes, I guess Emma Watson's character has more genuinely impressive things to do now than just knowing all the answers in class. And to be fair, Tom Felton also probably benefits from the fact that his character is now being asked to do more complex things than Daniel Radcliffe's or Rupert Grint's. Draco is all conflicted now, as he begins to understand the consequences of the dark arts, while Harry and Ron don't really have any such internal struggles to deal with.
