If Dumbledore was a person from the future then why would he care about the
prophecy? Also he's MUCH too important in this specific tale and the entire
WW, if he wouldn't have been there in the first 'version' of events... the
whole WW would have been different... the dark wizard Grimmiwauld (or
whatever his name was again) would still be around, just like Voldemort and
what is the change of Future!Dumbledore (that's the syntax I believe this
group uses for things like this?!) being alive if he's so close to Harry
with 2 evil wizards around trying to kill him?

It's not a slight modification of events like when Harry sees himself
casting the patronus or Hermione being in 2 classes at the same time... it's
a totally different story in a totally different world-> MUCH too
complicated for only 2 books :)

is too much to go wrong and because it can be used to explain letterly
everything in some sort of way)
