Well, in a certain fanfiction, Harry's act of pretending to be good is more of a self - discovery journey. He starts off faking it to fit in, but as the story progresses, he realizes that there are elements of true goodness within him that he had overlooked. This one has some great character development as Harry grapples with his identity and what it really means to be good.
Authors might write such fanfictions to explore different aspects of Harry's character. By having him pretend to be good, they can show a more complex side of him, not just the straightforward heroic image from the original books.
