Yeah, look. About that. It's not that I can protect her--you're right, I can't--but that dropping her would be a signal she's an open target. If you're going to step up and make it clear you're protecting her, then... But you're not. You don't. Pansy does, sure, but I'm not sure that would stop something happening if we set up a breakup and make her act like her pureblood boyfriend's decided she's rubbish. That's just an invitation for Nott or Montague or any of them.
