Why would you warn potential moles about a trap that reveals the moles in the ranks? Or is that not how it worked

To discourage actually snitching in the first place.

This wasn't sold to the students as some hardcore resistance group. It was just an underground sparring group to get an education the school had recently forbidden. And a lot of the students barely even wanted to do that given the risks involved and not trusting Harry. It took a good amount of convincing to make them come around. Just seems really shitty to persuade a bunch of people to join something they're not already on board with and then punish them when that obviously wavering loyalty breaks under the pressure of a system much more powerful than any one of them. <_<

And in any event it was a shitty countermeasure. The story establishes that Hermione can put a permanent hex on someone through the equivalent of signing a bogus TOS document and the best she can come up with is boils? For being the smartest wizard of her age she's a fucking dumbass lmao
