Not at all... it belongs in the category of logical fallacy.

My apologies for missing your point. I guess I'm just one of those people who,
when hearing the hoofbeats, thinks horses, not zebras.

In fact I do! It's just like the Florence flask-- the ghostly glow of Snape's
head has been added by an artist. The head is really like those on the
Adventurer mummy-- non-glowing grey. I base MY reasoning on the assumption
that LEGO would not miss an opportunity to tout the head's glowing qualities
were it so (remember how the ads for castle sets for a while stated, "Includes
glow-in-the-dark ghost!!!"?).
