Well, the entire theory is something of a time paradox.  How does Ron know
how to act as AD?  Because he saw him.  How does he know what happens with
Riddle and Voldie?  Because Dumbledore told him (or told Harry, who told
him).  Everything that happens is contingent on the time travel, but that
was true of the whole Patronus/Prongs issue back in POA too.  I don't see
how knowing exactly when to swoop down to save Harry from Quirrelmort
because he lived through it once is any worse than knowing of the uses of
dragon's blood because he studied it.
