I admit it was cold and dangerous but no more than deliberately changing everything. Their knowledge is only good up to a point. People need to follow similar paths for their knowledge to be any good. And short of assassinating every Death Eater that worked for Voldie there isn't much they can do.

Backward With Purpose
Quite good, unfortunately I agree with comments by Clendy82 and Psalm of Fire (from https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/FanficRecs/HarryPotterPeggySue)
"The story falls into a trap common to many Peggy Sue fics, and that is to have the protagonists become much more pro-active, with the antagonists becoming reactive. Despite the fact that Death Eaters are dropping left and right, the yearly storylines proceed mostly on schedule with little adaptation."
"So let me get this straight, your great plan was to let the glance=kill basilisk run around the school with all the people you've loved and come back to save? And you think that every person this basilisk encounters is going to be just as lucky as last time and only ever see the filtered/reflected image of the eyes? And you're willing to risk their deaths, their deaths, when there are alternatives? I would call it lazy writing but the author is not lazy. Harry went along with this decision, nay, only contested it for Ginny's sake as if she were the only one at risk."
