Makes sense to me. In fact the "cutsy" love concept may very well be 
what drives the last bit of Voldemort FROM harry. Heck, maybe the 
part of Voldemort that is in Harry is the VERY THING that keeps 
him "alive" in the first place!

So when love is so intense that it drives the last of Voldemort from 
Harry there is no longer a small part of voldemort remaining outside 
of his physical body. When the physical body dies... so too must Tom 
Riddle becucase no piece of him remains.

As you noted, Harry isn't to that point yet. Part of love inevitably 
is felt in loss. But true sacrificing love we have not seen yet.
