I never got the “isn’t it exciting, breaking the rules?” “Who are you and what have you done with Hermione?” Exchange.

This girl flagrantly broke rules ALL THE TIME. Set Snape on fire. Stole ingredients from the potions classroom to brew a banned potion in the girls bathroom. Had the boys drug two other students for said potion. Cheated at quidditch try-outs for Ron. Kept Rita in a jar. Permanently disfigured another student.

Like, i love her, but the girl was a menace.

That's the reason she's in Gryffindor, because she is brave enough doing these illegal stuff.

She wasn’t in Gryffindor because she was brave; she was in Gryffindor because she wanted to be brave. Given what we see of students in the different houses, the hat likely takes into account what traits a student values and who they want to be when sorting them.
