Note that in this case, we have Harry plotting to deliberately cause a Thirty Xanatos Pileup among the soldiers of the other armies, which I propose should have a Xanatos Infinite Ordinal of w+1 (that is, omega plus one). Considering that the chaos of the complete battle, including Harry's own plot and Dumbledore's, was used by Professor Quirrell to make the point of his speech, it is clear that the complete Xanatos Flowchart for this chapter would have an Xanatos Infinite Ordinal of at least 2w+1
