If Harry had been a Slytherin, 2nd year would've been so fun for him. The moment the rumors of him being the heir of Slytherin got out, no one would've stood a chance.
The literal morning after, you see Draco Malfoy and Pansy Parkinson shoving everyone out the way saying
"Move peasants, let the heir through!", while Harry Potter is carried on Crabbe and Goyles shoulders like some makeshift throne, behind them Blaise Zambini plays "Bow
Down by Beyoncé" on top volume.
No one questions it, not even the teachers.
