One of many things that never made any sense to me is just how much is the Wizarding World oblivious to Muggle technologies and ways of life in general, not in terms of (not) using and practicing them but being totally clueless of these things as though they were coming from a different planet, which is a complete BS considering how intertwined these two worlds actually are: The pure-bloods are the least common as far as the so called blood status goes, and are actually pretty rare, with half-bloods making up most of the wizards and witches. Also, many places are mixed Muggle and wizarding communities. On top of that, around 25% of all wizards are Muggle-born according to JKR, and that was pretty much the only world they knew up until the age of 11, meaning that most wizards have close family ties to Muggles, or they are Muggle-born themselves, and them being so ignorant of that world, and so perplexed by it is a total nonsense. I mean, we saw Harry, Lily and Hermione adapting to the Wizarding World and their new way of life pretty fast coming from Muggle backgrounds and upbringings, but on the other hand theres that dumbass Arthur Weasley who deals with Muggle objects for a living, on top of being fascinated by them outside work, but hes still at a loss about these things to the point of constantly mispronouncing some words (such as electricity and escalator, even when they are derived from Latin, same as incantations for all those spells hes mumbling on a daily basis. No wonder his family is so poor.

No offence, but I think you haven't read the books, as some of your points are wrong.
-Hogwarts express wasn't the only option for travelling to hogwarts. Some people used portkeys and apparation also, which is what Scotland residents must be using to either reach the train station or to directly reach Hogwarts.
-Scabbers/Pettigrew/Wormtail decided to stay with a wizarding family i. e. the Weasleys so he could get all updates about the wizarding world and know if Sirius escaped Azkaban.
-Dumbledore couldn't hire good teachers because no one was willing to take the Defense against the Dark Arts job as they though it was jinxed/cursed.
-The Ministry of Magic WAS reluctant about handing Hermione the time-turner. They also refused but ended up agreeing as Prof McGonagall continually insisted them to, saying that Hermione was an ideal student who would not use the time-turner for anything wrong.
-Careers in Wizarding world: Auror, Ministry Officials, Minister for Magic, Healer (Doctors in Wizarding World, journalist, quidditch player, school teacher, writer of textbooks and wizarding guides, magizoologist (one who studies magical animals, etc. One could also run a business like 'Weasleys Wizard Weezes jokeshop' which made Fred and George very rich and popular.
-Personally speaking, Molly vs Bellatrix was a perfect decision, as it highlighted the power of a mother.

Guys, listen here, most of the loopholes shown here, aren't in the books. All this stuff is just the movie's inefficiency. Moreover, I'd like to point out, that Molly did not fire an unforgivable curse at Bellatrix, she probably used petrificus totalus and then blasted her. Anyways, you must check before you upload stuff. The title also is wrong, probably you should write something like movie loopholes or something because JK Rowling left no loophole in the plot or story.

A lack of proper child protective services. If even half the awful things the dursleys did to Harry were revealed to a normal non-magical child protective services they would have been punished so why not a magical version

We'll you don't seem to understand that those movies are still really good. Don't forget it's been over 20yrs since the first Harry Potter movie came out. That's why it doesn't seem to make sense to you.

The reason that no one knew about the sorting hat is because there was a Fidelius Charm cast by the headmaster/headmistress meaning no one aside from them could mention the sorting hat

The reason they can't get good defense against the dark arts teachers is because Tom riddle when he didn't get the job he cursed it so no one could keep it for more than a year
