"I mean," says Miranda, "yes, this is very creepy, but. House elf origins are really obscure; so probably wizards are not actively doing things to each new baby house elf. The house elves who actually exist in real life today prefer to be how they are. And it might be completely impossible to stop them-as-a-group from being that way without eradicating them as a species, which they would and should object to. It is extremely likely that you could spend a huge amount of time getting to the bottom of it and not having anything at the end other than a really good reason to think some dead wizard was a really bad person. Nothing actionable."
