<<< "annemehr"...I just don't see either the plot reason or the 
thematic point of him losing magic entirely.  Perhaps it wouldn't be 
worse than death, but it would make him miserable. Any "Harry loses 
his powers" theorists care to explain?>>>

The Sergeant Majorette says:

Traumatic as it will be for all of us in this reality, I think Harry 
will die. But as the last fairy at Sleeping Beauty's christening 
said, maybe we can work something out here: he doesn't physically 
die, but his magic does. And why would it make him miserable? He can 
move in the real world. The only thing the Wizarding world gave him 
that he couldn't live without is his friends. Now, if they all die 
and he lives -- oh, I couldn't bear that!
