As I read it, Carrow's simply obsessed with possessing the boy. I can't see him just shrugging his shoulders and accepting it if Minerva shows him a piece of parchment saying he's no longer legal owner. And if we port him away, how would Minerva explain his disappearance? Carrow's had plenty of opportunities over the years to obtain a sample of the boy's blood, and Merlin knows he's a specialist in the sorts of dark spells that could be used to track him. For that reason, I don't think it'd be safe to take him to Moddey Dhoo. Not as long as Carrow's alive, anyway.
