But, that was in the book? I would have been upset if they left it out of the movie, I think.

It was a way to close the door on Harry's story, period. Like, there wouldn't be much of a point to going back and writing the 19 or whatever years in between. It might have been sloppy (and whooooooo boy was the cast's makeup and "middle-aged people" getup terrible) but it is what it is.
